If folks are serious about killing dual-stack ...
Hmm, I would rephrase that to: "If folks are serious about IPv6 and are willing to set a real incentive for this community to have a reality check and test their own infrastructure in a safe environment with losts of experts around..." Nobody wants to kill Dualstack right now. There will always be a legacy network as backup, like on every other RIPE meeting. But you won't see most of the common misconfigurations in a Dualstack Environment and it's time to move out of your comfort zone now. Manually switching from default SSID to some legacy fallback should not be a problem for those people with intentionally old infrastructure. People who still run Windows 95 in 2019 will clearly have the expertise to klick on a button, right?
Wouldn't it make more sense to first move this mailing list to an actual ipv6-only environment?
Bold move, but yes - why not? By now, everybody with fairly recent infrastructure should have at least Dualstack on their mailservers, so this shouldn't impose any problem, right?
Perhaps the WG could RIPE NCC to register a domain like ripe-ipv6-only-wg.org. This domain would have authoritative nameservers only reachable via IPv6, an MTA that doesn't have any IPv4 connectivity & a webserver with the charter, CoC, and mailing list archive only accessible via IPv6. Much like how Marco David's dnslabs.nl is set up?
Nice idea. You would have my support for this. Bjørn
