it seems to me that we'll have widespread ipv4 for +10 years at least,
potentially there will be enough ipv4 alive in 20 years to still
consider it 'widespread'. I also think we'll see more v4 routes
(longer prefixes) show up in the first 10yrs, before it gets better :(
I could be wrong, I hope I am, but...

I agree that v6 deployments seem to be getting
better/faster/stronger... I think that's good news, but we'll still be
paying the v4 piper for a while.
