[arin-discuss] Microsoft and IPv4 Purchase

[Jacob Epstein]

All,

I haven't seen a thread on our listserve yet per Microsoft planning to 
purchase IPv4 from Nortel's Bankruptcy proceedings.

Here are two links that we found on the topic.

Thanks to John Curran, our CEO for his involvement. Its important I 
think for all Internet providers that IPv4 allocations follow an orderly 
and managed transfer process so that individual entities with big 
pockets and control the space.

Thanks,
Jake
