The purpose of this white paper is to provide enterprises with guidance, based on a three- to five-year outlook, on how IPv6 should be included in their network design, planning, and operations starting today. The intended audience is enterprise network administrators.
This document will explore the area of the network and beyond where IPv6 needs to be considered and the reasons to consider it. In 2011 enterprises should assess their position toward IPv6 with an aim to drafting their own requirements, plans, and opportunities. Indeed, some have already identified IPv6 as a networking tool, better than a (re)numbering constraint, and everybody should share this opportunity.

This is a fabulous paper that puts all of the IPv6 issues "on the table" for discussion. I particularly like the fact that it has a broad scope, while explaining each in a matter-of-fact manner and realistically looks at the impact (or lack of the same) as IPv6 is rolled out.
Further, it has a great compendium of technical resources that by itself justifies your making this paper a part of your library. A MUST READ for sure!
