			<description><![CDATA[Comcast, the largest cable operator in the U.S., is reported to have developed an innovative approach for gradually migrating its customers to IPv6. The company has 24.7 million cable customers, 14.1 million broadband customers and 5.2 million voice customers. The solution dubbed Dual-Stack Lite, is backwards compatible with IPv4 and can be deployed incrementally according the company. Comcast has <a href="http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-durand-dual-stack-lite-00">submitted this proposal</a> to the Internet standards body, Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) which has scheduled a review during the upcoming IETF meeting in Dublin later this month.

			<description><![CDATA[It's fascinating to watch the Internet technical community grapple with policy economics as they face the problems creating by the growing scarcity of IPv4 addresses. The Internet Governance Project (IGP) is analyzing the innovative policies that <a href="http://www.arin.net">ARIN</a>, <a href="http://www.ripe.net">RIPE</a> and <a href="http://www.apnic.net">APNIC</a> are considering as a response to the depletion of IPv4 addresses. <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/is_it_time_market_ipv4_addresses/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[On June 30, U.S. federal government officials expect to declare an early victory on the IPv6 front. But they admit that meeting their much-heralded June 30 deadline for IPv6 compatibility is just the opening salvo of a long-term battle to get their networks ready for the Internet of the future. Under a White House <a href="http://www.whitehouse.gov/omb/egov/b-1-information.html">policy</a> issued in August 2005, all federal agencies must demonstrate the ability to pass IPv6 packets across their backbone networks by this deadline. <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/feds_ready_for_ipv6_d_day/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<title>Defense Department Demonstrates Compliance with the OMB IPv6 Mandate</title>

			<link>http://www.circleid.com/posts/86980_defense_department_compliance_omb_ipv6/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[IPv6 is "critical to achieve our net-centric vision", said Kris Strance, DoD Lead for IP Policy, speaking at the Information Assurance Collaboration Forum (IACF) in Laurel, Maryland last week. The Defense Department sees the proliferation of IP-addressable devices as a key driver for IPv6 adoption, and does not believe that IPv4 can satisfy its future requirements. The imminent explosion of non-traditional IP-enabled devices that Defense intends to implement may even threaten the large IPv4 address allocations that the Department holds. <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/86980_defense_department_compliance_omb_ipv6/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The internet bus continues to accelerate straight into the IPv4 address depletion wall with spirited discussions continuing on how to divvy up the remnants of the address space. Obviously all five Regional Internet Registries (RIR's) want to make sure they get their fair share from IANA but what is a fair share remains the subject of interpretation. In the mean time, scenarios of a speculative land rush and auctions of ever smaller address blocks abound with unattractive consequences such as an explosion of the size of the routing table and a stunted growth of the global internet economy... In the meantime, the airline industry completed a rather significant migration of their own... <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/86270_ipv6_and_airline_tickets/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Google search is available over IPv6 at <a href="http://ipv6.google.com/">ipv6.google.com</a> (you'll need an IPv6 connection to view it)... From the official blog: "We hope that by allowing every computer and mobile device on the network to talk to each other directly -- an idea known as the "end-to-end principle" that was crucial to the original design of the Internet -- IPv6 will allow the continued growth of the Internet and enable new applications yet to be invented." <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/851411_google_announces_ipv6/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<title>IPv4 Shortage and Trading Concerns as Hot Marketable Goods</title>

			<link>http://www.circleid.com/posts/ipv4_shortage_trading_hot_goods/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[With IPv4 addresses in short supply, they could become increasingly interesting and marketable goods. This is a concern for Regional Internet Registries (RIR) that are in charge of managing IP address allocations. Heise Online reports: "If they officially permit transfers or sales in the future, they will be implicitly accepting commercialization and privatization. Any attempt to insist on the return of addresses to the RIRs could drive trading, which is probably inevitable, underground..." <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/ipv4_shortage_trading_hot_goods/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Internet address space long ago issued to San Francisco Bay Packet Radio, an organization that was involved way back in the 1970s in testing ARPANET, a predecessor to the global commercial Internet that we all use today. That organization was given the rights to do whatever it wanted with 134.17.0.0/16 address block. That entire swath of Internet space is now registered to an entity in Westminster, Colo., called SF Bay Packet Radio LLC, but except for a similar name, this company has no relation to San Francisco Bay Packet Radio... ? <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/ip_address_space_hijacked_spammers/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<link>http://www.circleid.com/posts/the_end_of_end_to_end/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[One of the major principles of the architecture of the Internet was encapsulated in a paper by Saltzer, Reed and Clark, "End-to-End Arguments in System Design". This paper, originally published in 1981, encapsulated very clearly the looming tension between the network and the application: "The function in question can completely and correctly be implemented only with the knowledge and help of the application standing at the end points of the communication system. Therefore, providing that questioned function as a feature of the communication system itself is not possible." At the time this end-to-end argument was akin to networking heresy! <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/the_end_of_end_to_end/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<title>Important New Jersey Supreme Court Decision in Internet Privacy</title>

			<link>http://www.circleid.com/posts/842310_new_jersey_court_internet_privacy/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[The New Jersey Supreme Court has issued an important decision on Internet users' right to privacy. The case involves a dispute about whether an ISP violated a user's privacy rights by turning over subscriber information (name, address, billing details) associated with a particular IP address. It ends up that the subpoena served on the ISP was invalid for a variety of reasons. As the user had a 'reasonable expectation of privacy' in her Internet activities and identifying information, and because the subpoena served on the ISP was invalid, the New Jersey court determined that the ISP should not have turned over the personal data... <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/842310_new_jersey_court_internet_privacy/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[The Cooperative Association for Internet Data Analysis (CAIDA) and the American Registry for Internet Numbers (ARIN) presented the <a href="http://www.arin.net/meetings/minutes/ARIN_XXI/PDF/monday/IPv6_Survey_KC.pdf">results</a> [PDF] of a recent IPv6 survey at the ARIN XXI Public Policy Meeting in Denver on April 7th. The survey involved over 200 respondents from a blend of Government, commercial organizations (including ISPs and end users), educational institutions, associations, and other profit and non-profit entities. The purpose of the survey, conducted between March 10th and 24th, was to capture IPv6 penetration data in the ARIN region... <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/84136_caida_arin_ipv6_survey/">More...</a>]]></description>

			<title>IPv6 in Slovak Academic Network</title>

			<link>http://www.circleid.com/posts/ipv6_in_slovak_academic_network/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[The main reason for developing a new internet protocol was based on lack of address; however this was not the only reason. Unfortunately, many people think of IPv6 only as enormous address space, but there are a lot of other advantages, for example... authorizations and authentication function are implemented directly in the protocol and are mandatory... automatic configuration of network interfaces based on their physical address... protocol itself recognizes data streams which must be transmitted in real time, and the data must be processed with highest priority... <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/ipv6_in_slovak_academic_network/">More...</a>]]></description>

Alma Whitten, Software Engineer at Google, today <a href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2008/02/are-ip-addresses-personal.html">posted </a>to their Public Policy Blog that IP addresses shouldn't be considered Personally Identifiable Information (PII).

			<title>Comments on an IP Address Trading Market</title>

			<link>http://www.circleid.com/posts/82159_ip_address_trading_market/</link>
			<description><![CDATA[With IPv4 addresses becoming scarcer, there has been talk that a trading market will develop. The idea is that those holding addresses they do not really need will sell them for a profit. More alarming is that there have been a few <a href="http://www.networkworld.com/news/2008/021308-ipv6-delay.html">articles</a> about how the Regional Internet Registries (RIR) are contemplating creating such a market so that they can regulate it, conceding that it will happen anyway and taking the "if you can't be 'em, join 'em" attitude. This is all a bit disturbing. Maybe I'm naïve, but it's a little unclear to me how an unsanctioned trading market could really operate without the RIRs at least being aware... <a href="http://www.circleid.com/posts/82159_ip_address_trading_market/">More...</a>]]></description>
