That's been true for well over a decade but the world seems in no hurry to switch
from IPv4 to IPv6.
My ISP (Comcast), through which I do all my networking (aside from a small
local home network) is not demanding that I switch and it states that it will
continue to support IPv4.
I would like to switch but since I use a custom GNU/Linux it would involve
rebuilding a lot of software as well as the kernel. This is more of an
inconvenience than a serious problem but since there is no great push to adopt
IPv6 I will stay, for now, with IPv4.
