Throughout the IPng discussions, I had always held that NAT would not 
go away.  Neither for corporate use or for home use.

And this is not just because I am one of the authors of RFC 1918!

The arguements are many; I don't see any value of going into it here.

Just don't build your IPv6 business plan on no more NATs....
