Er. Why would dhcpv6 be classed as "very difficult"? And how old is this
article?

We offer dual stack v4 and v6, dhcp, over wifi at the apricot conference
every year (www.apricot.net) - works just fine. Technology is out there.
XP, Mac, Linux etc pick it up reasonably well.

And nanog has other fun stuff like the "v6 hour" where v4 connectivity is
turned off for an hour, leaving only v6 available. What breaks and what
doesnt break gets tested out rather practically that way.
