good luck. Until the ISPs and our corporate networks deploy it, we can't go there.

	to use legacy protocol like IPv4 :-) you can use IPv6-to-IPv4
	tranlators like NAT-PT or RFC3142.

NAT-PT (RFC 2766) is being moved to Historic status. RFC 3142 is Informational. Without a standards-track method for people to use IPv4, changing a production network to IPv6 seems unwise.

their scalability is no worse
	than IPv4-to-IPv4 NAT.

That may be true, but it is also irrelevant, given that the current production network doesn't use IPv4 NAT at all.
