This has been looming on the horizon for a while, but I guess I'm just too cynical (actually, I prefer realistic) to expect much to be done until the $ cost of inaction becomes painful, and clearly higher than ignoring the problem in hope that it will go away.

Given the humble beginnings of the Internet as sort a DoD experiment/WAN, I think the 'net has proven incredibly robust.

Very interesting find, Street1... I think that Slgrieb is correct when says that not much will be done until the last minute. They are putting too much faith IMHO on Network Address Translation.

IPv6 can't come quick enough!
