The goal of the Test Flight Day is to motivate organizations across the industry – Internet service providers, hardware makers, operating system vendors and web companies – to prepare their services for IPv6 to ensure a successful transition as IPv4 addresses run out.

Please join us for this test drive and help accelerate the momentum of IPv6 deployment.

I wanted to take part in it, but unfortunately my IPv6 address does not pass.

Any address starting with "::", "fc", "fd", or "fe" are unable to work with the public IPv6 internet.

Oh well, good luck to those who can participate.

sounds interesting! Gonna check my IPv6 adress when I´m at home

I guess if the tests are successful the internet may get an actual date of turning IPv6 permanently.
I heard about IPv4 addresses to be totally used up soon.

What I don't get is why didn't they just made IPv6 address an alphanumeric IPv4, instead of some weird Hex thing? It would've allowed 26 more iterations, and still be readable.
Think about the memes it could generate :p
