<pre wrap="">I’m still a Visiting Fellow at Southampton, so can try again to advertise for good student(s) to take on the virtualisation task. I don’t really know the effort that would be involved, in detail. Do we not have contacts with companies providing virtualisation solutions who might do it pro-bono for ISOC?</pre>

Lance Draper had a hoster ready to host. But the hoster did not have
a Team to do the actual work of virtualisation. <br>

Odd the take-up hasn’t grown, esp. with the recent default provision of IPv6 on Cloudflare. </pre>

The figures are for the take-up overall which includes the
Nameserver. Domains from Cloudflare fronted Web sites were probably
already marked as using IPv6 since the DNS from Cloudflare as been
dual stack for a long while.<br>
Filtering by service type WWW only, one can see strong growth in the
UK to 2.8%, <br>
Globally 9%.<br>
<br>
Looking at the figures given by Google and others, who appear to
point at much higher levels of spread of IPv6, we appear to have
very conservative figures. That said, looking around me, whether in
the UK, Switzerland, France or elsewhere, I still see very little
use of IPv6, thus at a global penetration of 9% for WWW we might
well be more accurate on the trend. Ultimately, the more I look at
our results as well as those of other researchers, the more I think
this is not exact science.<br>
