Well.  This is *exactly* what you can do about it: bug your upstream ISPs
about it, and require it at contract requirements.

I know that a few .si ISPs already have working IPv6 - not production 
ready yet, but at least getting experience and moving packets, and building
momentum.

I don't know the market situation in Slovenia, admittedly, but I would
be surprised if none of the "big ones" with IPv6 would be offering their
services there (Global Crossing, NTT/Verio, Flag Telecom, UUnet).  What
international carriers are offering IP services at your place?
