The Internet Society announces World IPv6 Day

Apple pressed to show succession plan
The Register
Joe Fay writes why Institutional Investor Services (ISS) wants Apple to reveal its executive succession planning every year.

“The non-binding proposal is expected to go before shareholders at Apple’s annual meeting later this month. ISS’ intervention is significant, as institutional investors in major companies rely on it to guide them on how to vote on shareholder proposals. It played a particularly prominent role in the drawn out proxy fight around HP’s proposal to take over Compaq almost ten years ago.”

LG Optimus Pad (aka G-Slate) coming to MWC 2011 with Honeycomb, Tegra 2 and 3D display
Engadget
Vlad Savov shares details about LG’s upcoming Optimus Pad tablet device.

“The Optimus Pad, as this 8.9-inch tablet (from LG) will be known outside the US, will offer Android Honeycomb as its OS, along with a 3D-capable 1280 x 768 display, dual-core Tegra 2 processor, a front-facing camera plus a pair of imagers on the back allowing for 3D picture-taking, 32GB of onboard storage, and a 6,400mAh battery. We should be getting to grips with the device at MWC in due course — look for it to launch alongside or shortly after its US twin hits retail in March.”

Tech giants to enable IPv6 on “World IPv6 Day” in June
Ars Technica
Iljitsch van Beijnum outlines what World IPv6 Day is all about.

“The Internet Society, an organization dedicated to the good of the Internet, is organizing ‘World IPv6 Day’ on June 8 of this year. Web giants Facebook, Yahoo, and Google, with a combined one billion visitors per day, are participating by enabling IPv6 for their main services that day. Content distributors Limelight and Akamai are also joining the party by enabling their customers to participate. But unlike during the IETF IPv6 experiment, IPv4 won’t be turned off. The Internet Society expects that on IPv6 day, 0.05 percent of all users will see problem.”
