We saw the problem in early 199x and decided to invent IPv6 to solve it.
Because it would not get deployed within a couple of years, we started with
transition technologies like CIDR and NAT, do reduce the impact.

Unfortunately some people are unwilling to solve the problem by implementing
the intended and available solutions, instead they insist on ever increasing
support from others to keep their technical debt. Even worse several new
people assume, that the transition technologies are the way to go, because
their environment (ISPs, colleagues, schools, universities, vendors, ...)
are still too lazy to deal with IPv6.

So and now please do your homework. We could switch RIPE mailing lists to
IPv6 only in order to help you and others.
