Ok, so we need a monthly global “we’ll get rid of all these 512k IPv4 prefixes in BGP for you”-day and the problem will be solved by christmas.  It’s probably good enough if 5 major transport networks will do it once for a start, very much like 5 major content players started making loud noises 10 years to late for IPv6.  June 6 2016?  Who’s in for a long weekend?

If you can say crazy things, so can I.
