And there is more: people are now noticing when jitter and bufferbloat
actually matter, and ability to send A/V directly from end to end point
really does matter.

I just wish that more of the tools/platforms were:
1) supporting IPv6
2) providing better diagnostics as to what path a particular speaker was using.
3) am I having a problem transmitting, or are they having a problem receiving?

I think that we will see a direct relationship between using IPv6, and
seamless/trouble-free communications.
