@Michuki - I think what wash is alluding to is the fact that technical guys are well informed, its the business drivers we need. Technical training is being organized for all over the place. Tomorrow even has a<a href="http://www.afrinic.net/ipv6_webminar.htm"> webinar by France telecom through AFNOG</a>/TESPOK<br>
<br>What we need lets say next year is our own very public case study just like we're using france telecom or <a href="http://www.arnes.si/en/news/news-item/article/slovenia-scores-in-the-ipv6-ripeness.html">slovania </a>as a model IPv6 early adopter. <br>
<br>So for me the issue is more of leadership. Which ISP will take this debate to the next level, which techie, which grouping of people (I like what TESPOK has done so far). EANOG? Even this sort of discussion is a step forward. It creates awareness and provides a platform for discussion. <br>
<br>Personally I'd be more than happy to work with/consult for anyone willing to deploy on condition most of the documentation be public.Im sure many on this list would like to do the same.<br><br>So someone/some-entity needs to take the lead. The bigger this entity - Safaricom? Telkom? - the better (no not government). We can all get in there and help and create and learn from the experience.<br>

@ Wash, indeed we are not just talking, if you saw my response I believe the second thread, the ISOC ke chapter in formation is organising a series of. IPv6 training programs from june, we have been talking to stakeholders and we are greatfull for all the input we have received including this kind of discussion. The training and awareness programs will be led by Volunteer trainers who are the societies members led by Paul Muchene who started the thread under the theme Building the Future of the Internet together, membership is open to all stakeholders and we do hope to reach out to all counties through the University Networks.<br>
