We've all had plenty of notice about the limitations of v4 addresses, 
going back more than a decade.  I believe the last of the v4 addresses 
was finally assigned two weeks ago. at this point surprising no one.

It's been time for network systems to modernize for so long that I'd 
always assumed the Kickstarter goal of a modernized networking layer had 
that in mind.

I suspect Kevin's forthcoming announcement on IPv6 will reflect this 
long-acknowledged need with a solid plan for a smooth transition.
