It's not meant to be production-quality software. Real deployments use proprietary implementations like the A10 Networks stuff. I haven't really seen anybody want to run NAT64 outside the carrier world.

The NAT64 draft cleared last call in August and is in the RFC Editor queue waiting on some related drafts to be done before it's published as an RFC.

with something like like this I would expect that a lot of people would want to use it in small settings, simply for the bragging rights :-)

if something like this were to be added upstream (into linux, BSD, and the two nameserveer packages) you would see this capibility in everything in a relativly short time. It would be trivial to add it to most small routers for example.

If they really are taking the attitude that only large ISPs would care about this and they will buy specialized equipment from Cisco to do this, then they are really missing the boat.
