________________________________________________________________________ IPv6 Penetration Survey: Seeking global input ________________________________________________________________________ The American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN), in cooperation with the Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis (CAIDA), is conducting a new survey to gather data regarding current and future use of IPv6. We have expanded the scope of the survey to seek IPv6 penetration data from around the world. We cordially invite and encourage all organizations in the AfriNIC, APNIC, ARIN, LACNIC, and RIPE NCC regions to participate in the survey so we can establish a comprehensive view of present IPv6 penetration and future plans for IPv6 deployment. The survey will open on 8 September and remain available until 17:00 EDT on 1 October. The results of the survey will be presented and discussed at the ARIN XXII Public Policy and Members Meeting to be held in Los Angeles, CA, 15-17 October 2008. Additionally, the summary results will be shared with all the RIRs for further distribution within their respective regions. The survey data will support ongoing research. The survey is composed of 22 questions that can be answered in a few minutes. This is a secure survey and all data will be presented in summary form only, and kept confidential between ARIN and CAIDA. When you complete the survey you will be entered in a drawing for prizes, one raffle per RIR region. You must provide your contact information to win.
