It DOES, although address policy is not only one factor, of course.
It is true that the current provisional policy is too insufficient 
for Asian operators to deploy IPv6, which may not be the case in US though.
I can give you some concrete examples happening in Japan if you like;
confusion, misunderstanding and discouraging....

This is why we need a little bit better policy quickly.

It was a half year ago that the general idea of new policy
was made public globally, in Taipei. Since then, our community
have thought and discussed a lot, even though it is not enough.

Was it you that proposed a good idea of "Interim Policy" because
discussion would be otherwise endless?
