Not many networks are pushing IPv6 at this point, or more correctly, not 
many relative to the 230k+ routes that currently makes up a full IPv4 
routing table.  There likely won't be a mass flash-cut to IPv6, which is 
a subject that has been debated to death and back again here on NANOG 
over the last few weeks :)
