The abundance of IRRs (with varying levels of authorization controls) has resulted in rather<br>

Hi John,<br>
<br>
There'd be nothing to discuss if ARIN, alone among the RIRs, wasn't<br>
holding a third of the registrations under its management as<br>
"ineligible.”</div>

<div>I believe that this has been discussed at length, but in brief – yes, you are correct that ARIN’s </div>
<div>more advanced routing services (which involve significant investment of members funds) are only </div>
<div>made available to those who have brought their resources under agreement. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We continue to provide basic registry services to those with early registrations not under contract</div>
<div>(registry services including updates via ARIN Online, whois publication, reverse DNS, etc.) – and </div>
<div>have done so for more than 25 years – but our goal is equitable terms and fees for all of ARIN’s </div>
<div>customers.</div>
