Is IPv6 died ?

[Edward Lewis]

Be wary of anyone claiming that a technology is dead.  People sometimes
make these claims because they have a financial stake in a competitor to
the "dead" technology.  As a rule of thumb, the telecommunications industry
and the networking industry are competing interests, they will likely
disagree on the health of a technology.

IPv6 seems to be picking up momentum, in my estimation.  FreeSWAN, KAME,
et. al., efforts to get BIND 9 done are showing progress.
