[arin-announce] Something is New at www.arin.net

[ARIN]

Over the last year, ARIN has been getting a lot of questions about how
it deals with Internet number resource transfers. Particularly, there
has been some confusion about ARIN’s current IPv4 address pool and the
differences between transfers and the Specified Transfer Listing Service
(STLS). In an effort to address these concerns, ARIN has done an
overhaul of its homepage and transfer related content.

On the homepage you will see that the IPv4 Address Counter has been
moved to a more prominent position and that directly above it there is a
link to the Transfer Resources section of the website. You can use this
link to go to the main Transfer Resources landing page or mouse over the
“More Information” box to reveal dropdown navigation for shortcuts to
each page in the section.

There are several important changes and new pages within the Transfer
Resources section:

https://www.arin.net/resources/transfers/index.html - On the landing
page, there is a graphic that describes each of the options that might
have you inquiring about transfers to help you find the right
information for your situation.

https://www.arin.net/resources/transfers/transfer_market.html - This new
page is helpful to anyone who wants to understand ARIN’s transfer
process and the state of the IPv4 transfer market.

https://www.arin.net/resources/transfers/quickguide.html - In addition
to updating the guidelines for transfers, ARIN created a quick guide,
much like the popular “Quick Guide to Requesting Resource from ARIN”.
There are also a variety of other improvements that we encourage you to
explore.

The ARIN website is a core part of our service to the community, and we
are interested in your feedback on the new design and content. Please
send any comments, suggestions, or questions to webmaster at arin.net.
