What, of course we will all be wondering is if the date of the next “test flight” will be announced. At the recent “IPv6 Now!” event in New York with ISOC’s Phil Roberts it was suggested that a date had already been selected. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCXTqJMMrM8
Video of the entire afternoon session of the Light Reading “IPv6 2011 – The Time Is Now!” Conference is posted below. The session comprised 1) a keynote from Doug Junkins, CTO, NTT America; 2) a ‘consumer’ panel on implementation for end users; 3) a World IPv6 Day follow up panel – featuring the Internet Society’s own Phil Roberts; and, finally, 4) a wrap-up panel including Latif Ladid of the IPv6 Forum and John Curran of ARIN.
We already posted a brief clip of Geoff Huston’s concluding remarks from ISOC Hong Kong’s Kickstart IPv6! event. The chapter has now published the entire event in HD video including a feature summary.
Good work, Joly. Good video.

We have designed our civilization based on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up inour faces.” – Carl Sagan
Never has a clear comprehension of the technology surrounding us been more critical than today. We tell machines what to do and hope they’ll do it, and when they don’t they leave us vulnerable to technological accidents and acts of malice we cannot comprehend. This event will bring together technologists from a variety of disciplines and backgrounds to explore technology on a granular level, from perspectives ranging from user behavior in virtual environments to the exploitation of functions at the hardware level.
