Tools is the first that comes to mind. If you want the larger carriers 
to use it they need to adopt their provisioning systems, but that is 
not a fault of IPv6. I think we need to urgently solve multihoming, 
some PI like mechanism, and I think we should take out site-locals, or 
at least minimize their use until it's to late and we are stuck with 
the RFC1918 problem and applications that won't work.

That is a problem that will be solved when there is enough demand.
