The source of all evil. Or on the other hand: A good way to earn
money. I wrote an invoice for looking into /etc/hosts once.

Ack. Same with other stuff like monitoring and co. IT claims to be agile
but the proper infrastructure and processes are not in place. Hard to do
any innovation like implementing IPv6 in these environments.

And as an addition to Wilhelm presentation: People have to learn that
IPv6 is not (only) a networking topic but must involve all of IT.
