IPv6 global routing infrastructure

I just received a newsletter from Hurricane Electric and note that of the 35684 autonomous networks in the world running BGP, the number of IPv6 networks is increased to 2487. In other words, IPv6 now makes up 7 % of the global routing infrastructure.

IPv4 and IPv6 will co-exist for an ultra long time. It might take 30 - 40 years for the global routing infrastructure to become 100 % IPv6. By that time, I will be sleeping forever.
