I hear ya buddy. I'm on the Network Services Team at American Eagle...as a developer (oddly enough, not as a network engineer). But I've been creating an application that will be used in our stores to troubleshoot wireless and connectivity from a device in store perspective. Anyways, that being said we still use IPv4, and the pulled support of IPv4 looming put a scare into my heart and my managers heart lol. I've been using Apple's standard APIs which are optimized for both IPv6 & V4. I guess I lucked out....for a moment I thought my app was going to be irrelevant. If you haven't already figured it out I'm sure you will!

@NateTDenlinger my biggest problem is that they changed when we were moving from dev to production and we didn't notice. Now we are late and we can't make it work on AWS and we need to move on different hosting

@ninjaneard gotcha, ouch yeah that's terrible!! I wish certain companies would voice bigger changes like that in a "louder" way. I honestly think that with the support drop on IPv4 was a little too early. What's the plan of action now?

@NateTDenlinger I spent whole day migrating it to another host server is in node so changes to enable ipv6 were basic. Now it is up to a iOS and android devs to retarget app and I hope to get some rest

Ok so another short rant about project I ranted before. We are developing Android and iOS social app for around 6 months, apps should have been in store during September . Turns out sometimes during August Apple decided that all apps of appstore that communicate with server have to implement ipv6 also Amazon had support ipv6 on its old ec-classic instances but not on new ec-vpc instances. I have worked until middle of the night trying to find work around for this but at the end we need to find another host that supports ipv6
