Hi John,

To be clear, ARIN sent the following text (as quoted by Frank) to the
above 52 requestors and they replied in the affirmative?

        Please reply and verify that you will be using
        the requested number resources within the ARIN region
        and announcing all routing prefixes of the requested
        space from within the ARIN region. In accordance with
        section 2.2 of the NRPM, ARIN issues number resources
        only for use within its region. ARIN is therefore only
        able to provide for your in-region numbering needs.

Regards,
Bill Herrin
