spike in ARIN IP allocation in Jan 2001

[Louis Lee]

Leslie,

Thank you for your Joint RIR Statistics presentation at the public policy
meeting this morning.  I look forward to reviewing slides when they get
posted to the ARIN website.

I noticed that there was a spike in ARIN IP allocation in January 2001 (and
maybe another spike just a couple of months before).  While I have a number
of guess why this may be, I was wondering if you have any insight for the
reasons behind the spike(s).  I don't think the other RIRs experienced a
similar spike.

Thanks,
Louie
