Ballot Text

Technical Summary

   This document provides an overview of IPv6 deployment status in early
   2022.  Specifically, it looks at the degree of adoption of IPv6 in
   the industry, analyzes the remaining challenges and proposes further
   investigations in areas where the industry has not yet taken a clear
   and unified approach in the transition to IPv6.  It obsoletes RFC
   6036.

Working Group Summary

   Broad agreement. No objections were raised.

Document Quality

   This document provides a survey of the status of IPv6
   deployment and highlight both the achievements and remaining
   obstacles in the transition to IPv6 networks (and its coexistence
   with continued IPv4 services).  The target is to give an updated view
   of the practices and plans already described in [RFC6036], to
   encourage further actions and more investigations in those areas that
   are still under discussion, and to present the main incentives for
   the adoption of IPv6.

   The chairs confirm that all of the authors made significant contributions
   to the text, and so I am OK with six listed authors
