I don't know that they're trying to drive a wedge between IPv4 and IPv6. I would think that even NDN's supporters see it as a very long-term, post-IPv6 development.

I am surprised however to see Cisco supporting this. It's one thing to have some academic networking specialists writing papers about NDN, but for a major corporation to devote resources to a 10+ year development project with an unproven architectural basis strikes me as odd.

Cisco was involved with it since at least of 2012. They actually wrote software in the protocol as well. It was for video conference if I recall correctly.
