IPv6 Hour at NANOG42

Subject: IPv6 Hour at NANOG 42

Hello everyone,

We are planning to hold an IPv6 testing and documentation hour during
the NANOG 42 meeting next month in San Jose.

During this hour, the conference wireless and wired networks will have
only IPv6 connectivity available during some phases of the work.
Recognising that some members of our community have to be on net and
available 24x7, there will be a small corner of the NANOG network which
will have IPv4 support.

The goal of the IPv6 hour will be educational, experimental, and
documentary for our community.  We are not trying to do damage,
politics, or marketing.  It is very likely we will all have to live
with IPv6, and getting common clue about it is part of the NANOG
mission.  We are trying/hoping to show what works and what does not,
and how to work around some of the bits that do not work.  We also hope
that attendees at NANOG 42 will join with us in this exercise and
contribute to the wiki at http://www.civil-tongue.net/clusterf/. (To
contribute to the wiki, please create a login, then open a ticket
addressed to admin, and wait for a return message indicating editorial
rights have been created.)

On Wednesday there will be a short session which will discuss the
experiences and lessons learned during the IPv6 hour.
