[address-policy-wg] IPv6 deployment

Hi Nick,

That was just an example to let community  knows that it is not only technical difficulties preventing some areas sticking to IPv4, 
There are more countries out there (I can prepare a list if you are really interested) with similar or other type of non-technical limitations.

RIPE Community does not belongs just to the ones who have possibility to deploy IPv6, (even if it is not the community responsibility to work around the damages some governments are causing)

Regards,

Arash

Arash,

individually, people are probably sympathetic to the fact that companies and organisations in Iran are unable to deploy ipv6 for legal reasons.
However, if the iranian government / regulatory authorities insist on shooting themselves in the foot by prohibiting ipv6, it's not the responsibility of the RIPE community to work around the damage that this causes.  The IPv4 boat has sailed.  It's now time to move on.
