Well... I do have a /26 IPv4 from my provider and a /48 IPv6. Also I don't 
currently make use of them via VPN I did so in the past or might do so again in 
the future. Basically it would also be an option to switch to another DSL 
provider and have my VLAN with both IPv4 and IPv6 from my colocation provider 
to my home via DSL.
And that's really something I do consider for the next years...
