	then our experiences differ. I've received mail from ARIN
	about a series of resources that were assigned pre-ARIN and would	
	would I be willing to place them under some form of RSA.
	Granted, the contacts have been in the last 24 months, so there
	have been years when ARIN was busy w/ other things.

	perhaps I was part of a pilot group, I don't know.  I do know
	that Leslie reported that some 14,000 cases were in process
	(where process was identification, notification, etc...)

	Its clear that you have not had the same experience as I have.
	I am confident that soon you will.  I have found that using the 
	secure login capability is very helpful in maintaining accurate 
	data about the resources under ones stewardship.
