if it doesnt do ipv6 it's broken

  I think that is an overstatement. A car is not broken because it does not drive on rail, you can get you to the same places. There is currently very little you cannot do without IPv6.

    It's a well known quote. There are ways to solve the IPv6 problem - and ISPs in Europe have successfully rolled out both major variants, Dual Stack (Native IPv4 and v6 running alongside each other) or DSLite (Native IPv6 throughout the network, CGNat at the edge for tunnelled IPv4 traffic). Liberty Global have opted for DSLite, the last major network of theirs will go live this year (Virgin Cable), BT and Sky (the two biggest xDSL providers) have been live for over a year at this point with Dual Stack.

  The article says the exact opposite: if it doesn't do IPv4 (either on its own, or via reliance on a NAT somewhere) it's broken.
