This paper presents an updated scoping of issues that remain to be resolved for IPv6 deployment to be realised in both site and ISP networks. The paper focuses on IPv6 components and "missing pieces" that still require attention in either standardisation processes or within appropriate bodies essential to successful deployment. The scope has changed from the original aim of reporting on IPv6-only networking issues; the broader coverage of general IPv6 deployment issues is more appropriate to this initial scoping report.
