Members have expressed concern about this large increase in AS number registrations. Issued in 1998 -- 915 Issued in 1999 -- 1,685 Issued in 2000 -- 1,596 (through July) The vast majority of these AS numbers are issued to newly multi-homed sites. Is this increase in AS number registrations a concern to the community and should ARIN policies be changed, as a result? The ARIN AS number registration guidelines can be found at http://www.arin.net/regserv/asnguide.htm and on the request template at http://www.arin.net/regserv/templates/asntemplate.txt ARIN would like your feedback on this issue.

There has been an ongoing discussion about what ARIN should charge for IPv6 allocations. ARIN does not want to discourage registration of IPv6 or hinder the growth of IPv6 networks. It has been suggested that ARIN change its policy so that current IPv4 subscription holders are not charged for their initial IPv6 (/35) allocation for the first one or two years. This temporary fee change may allow more organizations to request IPv6 address space. Should ARIN make a change to its existing IPv6 fee structure? ARIN would like your feedback on this issue.
