        Ideally the IETF WiFi network should now only provide the
          following 2 networks:

        
        1)IPv6-only

        
        2)IPv6-only with NAT64

        
        The later should be the default network.

        
        However you would say, well some stuff will break, some non
          technical people will use the IETF network and may have a bad
          experience, etc...

        
        So to be conservative but at the same time futurist and
          like it was done a few years back, why not create again an
          IPv4 outage of a few hours where the above 2 networks would be
          the only networks available? 

        
        Depending on results, this outage could be expanded to a
          full day at the following meeting, until the IPv4 network is
          totally removed from the WiFi?

        
    How about those that designed IPv6 and their ADs subject themselves
    to this regime and report to the rest of us how they got on?
