[Chapter-delegates] The end of IPv4

[Franck Martin]

Ideally, yes

Practically, we have seen that Chinese web sites, while being extremely successful in China, do not pass well the border. My feeling is that the center of innovation/business on the Internet is still the USA (cf Bill Clinton speech at ICANN in reference to where job creation should be in the USA)

Will IPv4 depletion in APNIC region be enough to tip the balance? I don't think so.

I don't see it this way.
I see it that with a strong local IPv6 infrastructure, all new
innovative future Internet services will be created and come on-line in
Asia thus shifting the centre of innovation to the APNIC region. Not
living in that part of the world, I despair at the inability of the
region I live in to understand that.
Kind regards,

Olivier
