Is it required that rwhois servers be accessible to the public or just 
to ARIN for making/validating reassignments?  If so then that is a
way to limit the distribution of confidential customer info to just
ARIN staff (which is covered by the RSA) that would not require this
policy change.

I am hesitant to support a policy that would reduce the quality and
depth of reassignment data.  This is especially important as we
get closer to IPv4 runout and the temptation to fudge reassignments
increases.
