to be more precise, what EuChinaGRID did was not to provide patches to provide private-IPv4 over IPv6.
Within EuChinaGRID we did essentially 2 things:

First, we deployed gLite and GOS on a testbed and studied the behavior using IPv6.
In doing this studies, we also exploited NAT-PT to perform specific Client-Server studies.

Second, since Research and Education network are IPv6 native , we are carrying out several tests, native IPv6, especially
within the Chinese part of out project.
