The ministerial meeting of the Organization for Economic Growth and Development (OCED), held last week in Seoul, issued a declaration expressing their support for the deployment of IPv6.
Representatives from the Regional Internet Registries (RIRs) and leading Internet personalities such as Vint Cerf argued that a quick adoption of IPv6 is essential as IPv4 addresses run out.
The IPv4 address pool is expected to run out by , at the latest, 2011 and may well be completely depleted by 2009. The declaration calls on large users of IPv4 addresses to lead the way in migrating to IPv6.
