The purpose of the experiment was to get some real data.
Before jumping to conclusions let's get the report. No-one thought this would work without a single flaw.
And this experiment is not about providing IPv6 only service to hotels, it is about providing IPv6 only + NAT64 to the IETF network.

32 tickets. Where people were encouraged to report anything. You cannot just assume those are real issues without looking at them.
E.g. you can discount 1151, 1175, 1185, 1160, 1174, 1172, 1159 straight away.
Some tickets may contain multiple issues and so on.

Looks like we're left with a handful of applications and some OS issues. We're not talking rocket science to get those fixed.
