Comcast is beginning public trial plans using IPv6. You can sign up at:

http://www.comcast6.net

Trial #1 will evaluate tunneling IPv6 over IPv4, using “6RD” technology.
Trial #2 will evaluate a native Dual-Stack IPv6 deployment issuing both IPv4 and IPv6 addresses to the customer premise.
Trial #3 will evaluate tunneling IPv4 over IPv6.

These trials will encourage other stakeholders to make plans to continue, or to begin, work on IPv6 in 2010 so that all stakeholders do their part in ensuring the future of the Internet is as bright and innovative as it has been in the past.

Sounds like an engineer, excited about the technology. I’m sure the corporate language won’t follow too far behind.

Comcast will continue to share what we learn with the Internet community, particularly with the IETF, for the benefit of other users of the Internet.

What you didn’t notice in that statement was that little section in font size 0.0001 where they added some disclaimers about the definitions of community, share, and benefit. But hey, they’re a business right? So why shouldn’t you expect them to rape and pillage your wallet.

On a side note, try a Google search for “comcast technician” and see what the top ten suggestions are. I like the one about “sleeping on my couch”.
