One colleague was on a webinar with AWS yesterday and sent me this choice quote: "We are making a big announcement about IPv6 next week. Watch our blog and you'll see a lot of support."
Note that neither Interest nor Data packets carry any host or interface addresses (such as IP addresses); Interest packets are routed towards data producers based on the names carried in the Interest packets, and Data packets are returned based on the state information set up by the Interests at each router hop
I like DANE. With 'traditional' SSL certificates you are trusting some third party to certify that someone controls a certain domain name. With DANE the actual operator of the domain name can publish this. Letting the person/organisation who really controls the domain name publish the information instead of letting a third party certify something about somebody just because they pay them to do so makes so much more sense...
ISP's and hosting companies will not run out of IPs.
One problem is that while existing ISP's and hosting companies will still have some IPv4 space left, exhaustion at the RIR (RIPE NCC, ARIN, etc) level will block the market for newcomers. With the current policies they will still get a few IPv4 addresses, but not enough to give some to every customer. So there will be older companies where customers can get IPv4 addresses and new companies where they can not. Not a very competitive market:-(
The presentation has a lot of nice graphs, gives estimations of address exhaustion based on Geoff's models, and talks a little about what could happen after IANA and the RIRs run out of addresses.
If things like this are possible, it would be impossible to check the security of software. Overall security would get worse, and people who don't care about about laws (criminals) would have a MUCH easier 'job'

Mine does the same occasionally. It's one of the ads.

The interesting bit:
From the architecture page:

Great, NAT-like state in every router...

Maybe it has something to do with Microsoft making fun of keyboard-less tablets these days...
