Why do you want to adopt IPv6 faster?
Personally I think the only realistic move is to advocate for an IPv7, which is backwards-compatible with IPv4 (keep ARP, keep classless addressing, keep DHCPv4, keep seeing NAT as acceptable, don't rely on multicast, etc.) instead of the wacky re-engineering project that IPv6 is. There's a clear need to get more addresses. There's not a clear need for all the other stuff being pushed as part of IPv6.
