ARIN has determined taking over the future support and
development of RWHOIS may require a complete rewrite
of the software. There has also been some discussion on 
this list about the possibility of a third reassignment 
option. Ginny Listman will be moving this discussion over 
to the dbwg at arin.net mailing list.
