Here in Spain they are rolling something called DS-Lite. As an aproximation, you
can think of it like a plan in which you have a Carrier Grade NAT area that gets
tunneled over IPv6 on the ISP end.

You end up having IPv4 access through and endpoint set by the ISP and IPv6 from
a "conventional" IPv6 network.

Small providers are skipping the whole thing and staying with IPv4 because there
is virtually no demand among consumers. At the clinic we have a business plan
with a static IPv4. It is worth mentioning consumer-grade plans from this ISP
include IPv6 but professional plans are IPv4 only.
