> 
> [Washington, D.C., USA and Geneva, Switzerland] – 17 January 2012 –
> Major Internet service providers (ISPs), home networking equipment
> manufacturers, and web companies around the world are coming together to
> permanently enable IPv6 for their products and services by 6 June 2012.
> 
> Organized by the Internet Society, and building on the successful
> one-day World IPv6 Day event held on 8 June 2011, World IPv6 Launch
> represents a major milestone in the global deployment of IPv6. As the
> successor to the current Internet Protocol, IPv4, IPv6 is critical to
> the Internet’s continued growth as a platform for innovation and
> economic development.
> 
> “The fact that leading companies across several industries are making
> significant commitments to participate in World IPv6 Launch is yet
> another indication that IPv6 is no longer a lab experiment; it’s here
> and is an important next step in the Internet’s evolution,” commented
> Leslie Daigle, the Internet Society’s Chief Internet Technology Officer.
> “And, as there are more IPv6 services, it becomes increasingly important
> for companies to accelerate their own deployment plans.”
> 
> ISPs participating in World IPv6 Launch will enable IPv6 for enough
> users so that at least 1% of their wireline residential subscribers who
> visit participating websites will do so using IPv6 by 6 June 2012. These
> ISPs have committed that IPv6 will be available automatically as the
> normal course of business for a significant portion of their
> subscribers. Committed ISPs are:
> 
> ●      AT&T
> ●      Comcast
> ●      Free Telecom
> ●      Internode
> ●      KDDI
> ●      Time Warner Cable
> ●      XS4ALL
> 
> Participating home networking equipment manufacturers will enable IPv6
> by default through the range of their home router products by 6 June
> 2012. Committed equipment manufacturers are:
> 
> ●      Cisco
> ●      D-Link
> 
> Web companies participating in World IPv6 Launch will enable IPv6 on
> their main websites permanently beginning 6 June 2012. Inaugural
> participants are:
> 
> ●      Facebook (www.facebook.com)
> ●      Google (www.google.com)
> ●      Microsoft Bing (www.bing.com)
> ●      Yahoo! (www.yahoo.com)
> 
> Content delivery network providers Akamai and Limelight will be enabling
> their customers to join this list of participating websites by enabling
> IPv6 throughout their infrastructure.
> 
> As IPv4 addresses become increasingly scarce, every segment of the
> industry must act quickly to accelerate full IPv6 adoption or risk
> increased costs and limited functionality online for Internet users
> everywhere. World IPv6 Launch participants are leading the way in this
> effort.
>

> About the need for IPv6
> IPv4 has approximately four billion IP addresses (the sequence of
> numbers assigned to each Internet-connected device). The explosion in
> the number of people, devices, and web services on the Internet means
> that IPv4 is running out of space. IPv6, the next-generation Internet
> protocol which provides more than 340 trillion, trillion, trillion
> addresses, will connect the billions of people not connected today and
> will help ensure the Internet can continue its current growth rate
> indefinitely.
> 
> About the Internet Society
> The Internet Society is the world’s trusted independent source of
> leadership for Internet policy, technology standards and future
> development. Based on its principled vision and substantial
> technological foundation, the Internet Society works with its members
> and Chapters around the world to promote the continued evolution and
> growth of the open Internet through dialog among companies, governments,
> and other organizations around the world. For more information, see:
