IPv6-only networking does work, surprisingly well. But there are a number of issues as well, and some hard work will be needed to resolve them.
For one, we were early transitioning to this mode and hit many of the bugs in various operating systems and applications. The situation has improved dramatically in the two years since we turned on our IPv6-networking mode, for instance Linux today works much better than it did back then. Still, some bugs remain. And I think the users need to push some of the application vendors to make the updates. For instance, while there now are recent versions of WoW that support IPv6, the same is not true of most other games. Similarly, Skype has known about their lack of support for IPv6-only networking for at least two years. When are they going to publish an update?
