    It would be a good start if AWS supported IPv6 on all their services in the first place. Everything enters through CloudFront so I don’t need any IPv4. But AWS’s own services don’t have IPv6 in every region, so I still have to provision NAT gateways.

      Yikes. I get free IPv6 for my servers through Hurricane Electric since my ISP doesn’t provide it yet, I wonder if their service also works on AWS? I mean come on, if someone like Comcast can figure it out, why is it so hard for a major player like Amazon?
