In case it's helpful, I often point people to a law review article that 
John Curran, Ray Plzak, and Steve Ryan wrote back in 2008:

https://digitalcommons.law.scu.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1449&context=chtlj

It includes much of the foundational history of ARIN (starting on page 12 
of the pdf / page 345 of the law review).
