IPV6 reported to be "more complex than YK2" (yikes!!)

Latest breaking news about IPV6 is not as enthusiastic as the Ubuntu 
group :-) (don't shoot the messenger)

Slowly Building up to IPv6
Despite a June 2008 deadline, less than 4 percent of federal agencies 
have migrated to IPv6 and less than 8 percent have finalized transition 
plans. While agencies are adding IPv6-capable hardware and software to 
their networks, questions surrounding security, privacy and other 
migration issues are slowing progress. Respondents also consider IPv6 
strictly an IT issue, rather than a business driver. IPv6 advantages 
include increased support for mobile applications, mandatory support for 
IP Security and QOS, and easier merging of networks. These benefits just 
aren't compelling enough, says a Burton Group analyst. The business case 
will strengthen in the next decade, but "I just don't believe we need to 
spend money on it today," he says. One company that cares — very much — 
about IPv6 is Google. An intent to cash in on it is behind the Internet 
giant's seemingly mysterious purchase of dark fiber, according to some.
