[arin-ppml] Use of the specified transfer policy

[Ted Mittelstaedt]

John and Martin,

John, I think one possible difficulty on the fraud issue is that unlike
both the civil and criminal justice system (in the united states, at any
rate) none of the fraud proceedings are public.

If someone submits fraud evidence or even a strong suspicion based on 
research in the whois database + direct experience, is there feedback?
Are they included in the investigation?  If there is wrongdoing 
discovered are they informed of any punishments meted out?  Without 
this, it is understandable that people would feel fraud reports are 
going into a black hole - and the lack of publicity also does not create 
examples of what is and what isn't allowed.  Most human beings learn by 
example.

Martin, keep in mind that ARIN has no legal contract between it and
a true "Legacy" resource holder as they never signed anything with them,
and ARIN is not a governmental body.  It thus has little ability to 
bring proceedings against a legacy holder who is violating ARIN's
NRPM
