World IPv6 Day?

[Frank Bulk]

Will we know which caches Akamai will have native IPv6 transit?  The last time I asked my upstream provider, who hosts an Akamai caching cluster, they said that Akamai had made no requests for IPv6 connectivity.

Another hidden fact in the announcement is that Akamai will be part of the experiment. And, for a CDN this is probably an order of magnitude more 'complex' than for 'normal' content providers.

Getting Limelight & Akamai dual-stack is a real step forward because we could imagine several of their customers still having their original web site in IPv4 only while CDN could serve their (static?) content over dual-stack from a close CDN. More IPv6 content near you ;-)
