[6bone] Getting ISPs to use IPv6

[Dan Reeder]

let me expand on my point below -
according to sixxs, there's four TLAs in australia: Connect, Telstra, NTT,
and AARNET

from what I can determine, Connect has been idle since it's inception in
1999; Telstra has a boss who thinks packet switching is an immature
technology, not to mention the fact that their left hand doesn't know what
the right hand is doing in an organisation that big; NTT seems to be for big
business ($$) only; and Aarnet for educational institutions only.

does anyone who lives in a country similarly constrained have any ideas
about how to get things progressing?
