The address space on the Internet is rapidly running out and the next couple of years on the Internet simply will not remain free IP-addresses for the deployment of new servers. This prevents the head of the Internet Corporation Icann Rhode Begstrom. According to Icann, the Internet is now free to a maximum of 8-9% IP-addresses, the rest being held by various providers and large companies.
According Begstroma, in order to avoid problems in the future, it is necessary today as soon as possible to implement support for the protocol IPv6. This version of the protocol supports addressing many trillions of web sites, compared with 32 billion units in the current protocol version IPv4.

Thanks for the story, which is "interesting" also in a translation perspective. The writer either cannot write proper English, or this has been made into English by MT? I assume you pointed out the story because of it's content, and not the examples of bad English...

Øystein, you are right about English)
Anyway, considering IPv6 and non-Latin trend it's but another fuss about nothing IMO. For example, about 50k corporate users have 1 (one, single, the only) external IP address. So one should tell 'white' IPs from dynamic ones. Also there're a lot of 'reserved' IPs which still are not assigned. Why?
It's all about $$$.
Cheers

I'm writing this comment while I participate in LACNIC XIII, the 13th meeting of the Regional Internet Registry for Latin America and the Caribbean, where this topic is being discussed in great detail (e.g. http://lacnic.net/en/eventos/lacnicxiii/flip62010.html )
So, no need to panic, everything will be all right
