No, lets not. Users don't have to care about IPv6.

Which means if not enabled, all service's and configuration should be
clean of IPv6 entry's
until enabled.

So lets revert a few years of software development then.

The WorldWideWeb is far from switching to IPv6.

Really?

Institutions/company's wont spent $$$ in buying expensive IPv6 or dual
capable IPv4/IPv6 Hardware
unless they are forced to do due so...

Or the equipment that is produced comes with IPv6 capability by default to give the hardware folks a reason to sell more hardware.

I don't know the strategy behind this  decision  from the beginning?

The world is running out of IPv4 addresses and NAT is a stop-gap that breaks things. Plus other nice things like QOS.

( maybe publicity  stunt  or to show the world we could  )
Yeah, weee, the crowd goes wild *applause applause*

Yep, you got it. _That's_ the reason it is being implemented.

</sarcasm>

Throw the dice and see if you make the reality check..
 

Let's turn it of by default and reconsider it after 3 - 5 years or later

Hell, let's just stop progress altogether. We've landed on the moon after all. There's nothing left to do is there?

Seriously, can I ask what has prompted this or is it just a slow day at the office?

Cheers
Chris
