Are Cisco, Huawei, Dell, HPE (Aruba), SUSE, Oracle, Nokia, ZTE, Red Hat, Panduit, Supermicro, National Marine Electronics Association (NMEA), VMware, Samsung, Arista, Juniper, DataDirect Networks (DDN Lustre), Sophos, Tencent Cloud Computing, Apple, etc, not 'major organizations'?

* https://www.ipv6ready.org/db/index.php/public/logo/02-C-002758/ https://www.ipv6ready.org/db/index.php/public/logo/02-C-0027...
They submitted products earlier in October, and the above has just been approved as of today (2023/10/29).

Department of Defense) as a way to get vendors onboard: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DoD_IPv6_product_certification https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DoD_IPv6_product_certification. The govt takes a stance that most vendors can't be trusted on their word so everything to be purchased must undergo a certification process to ensure that it meets the baseline requirements.
