Change in ARIN IPv6 Fee Policy

[Member Services]

In response to the desire of ARIN's members expressed at the 
October 2000 ARIN Public Policy and Members Meetings, the Board of Trustees,
with recommendation from the Advisory Council, agreed that ARIN will no
longer collect fees for IPv6 allocations made to current ARIN IPv4 subscribers. 
This move will be effective January 1, 2001 through December
31, 2002, or until the Board determines that the termination date should
be modified.
 
ARIN will refund all IPv6 subscription fees that were collected from
ARIN IPv4 subscription holders prior to December 31, 2000. The ARIN
Business Office will contact the companies involved for instructions on
whether to refund the fee or issue a credit.
