Naming

The naming of this article is a bit odd.
I think it should be named "6rd" (most commonly used) or possibly "IPv6 Rapid Deployment on IPv4 Infrastructures" --79.136.121.226 (talk) 13:11, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Move?

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: no move. DrKiernan (talk) 17:37, 24 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

IPv6 rapid deployment → 6rd — 6rd is the name usually used to refer to it. And it would fit with the naming of the other IPv6 transition technologies 79.136.121.226 (talk) 19:40, 6 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I oppose. 6rd would be ambiguous. --bender235 (talk) 01:37, 7 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
What would it be ambiguous with? Ucucha 17:59, 14 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

- That doesn't necessarily apply to article titles, otherwise articles on technical terms or terms of art would have to new titles invented for them. --Cybercobra (talk) 18:07, 17 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Support Gets twice the GHits and the fr.wiki article uses "6rd" as the title. --Cybercobra (talk) 00:20, 8 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Weak oppose. Referred just as such in some books, e.g. [1], but the full name is IPv6 rapid deployment on IPv4 infrastructures (6rd) [2] [3]. There aren't many secondary sources about this, so we should probably wait for more to appear before drawing any conclusions... Pcap ping 10:44, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

This draft proposal only has 4 citations [4], so it's doubtful it needs a Wikipedia page at all. The book I found above indicated it's just a minor modification of 6to4, so a smerge/redirect may be more appropriate anyway. Pcap ping 15:50, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I imagine the it has not been cited much in academia as it has only been an informational RFC for a month, and the IETF standards process has not finished. But I do not see how this would not be notable, and I think the sources show that. If you just want to merge it with 6to4, please add a Merge template instead. --79.136.120.159 (talk) 22:56, 23 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Prefix 64 - not enough adresses

"Although these 64-bit prefixes are sufficient for sites that have only one LAN, as typical for residential and SoHo sites, it is not enough for large enterprise sites". WHAT? IPv4^2 is not enough? are you crazy?
