If you have an existing IPv4 network, Free.FR deployed an IPv6 service in their existing IPv4 network using 6rd with a team of a couple of people and a month's time if I have the story straight.
Not in a month's time, to be accurate, but still in only 5 weeks!
IMHO, everyone involved in IPv6 deployment should be interested in this story.
For more details:

That involved almost no actual native IPv6; 6rd is an IPv6/IPv4 tunnel infrastructure. But it allowed them to provide both IPv4 and IPv6 *services* to their customers while they took time to think about what they wanted to do natively. They can change their network under the hood, so to speak, an their own schedule.
Changing the network under the hood - that is the process hardware and software audit and upgrade, proving out configurations, and applying them where needed. No intention to trivialize, but if one can separate "delivery of the service" from "deployment of the technology", it might make the road a little easier.
