Keith makes an interesting point.  Should ARIN create a web page
clearly linked off the home page with instructions on how to sign
an RSA and become a Member for legacy holders?  They could then
mass-mail all of the legacy holders with the web page.

For all of our attempts to do things with policy, is one of the right
things to do to get the community behind a suggestion that ARIN attempt
some very direct outreach to the legacy holders?
