I'm quite aware of v6 implementation efforts; my point was that
the *scale* at which v6 is actually being implemented is
by no means, 'wide'. I suppose, however, that this is quite a
subjective statement from both perspectives.

I also hesitate to mention that there is a significant part of
the industry that still questions the immediate need for IPv6,
or perhaps has not been convinced that IPv6 actually fixes any
existing problems, but that is another can of worms altogether
and is better discussed in another venue.
