Again, here is my disclaimer:

Thank you.

I am working with my company to determine how to get involved with a 
production IPv6 Internet, as one develops.  I am aware that the 6bone is 
apparently scheduled for decommisioning as of Internet Draft 6Bone 
PhaseOut 
(http://www.ietf.org/internet-drafts/draft-fink-6bone-phaseout-04.txt), 
and am left to assume that there is something else that is taking it's 
place.  I also am aware of the need in many countries for address-space 
which will be pushing IPv6 Internet to fruition. 

What options are available for a Production IPv6 Internet and how does it 
relate to the IPv4 Internet?
        Are there tunnel options for that network as well?
        Or does it require a "ISP-Provided" connection?
        Does one even exist currently?
        Does it touch the v4 Internet or is it a separate entity?

</MEAT>

Thank you all in advance!
Matt
