Our team has posted several cases following the prescribed procedures, and it would be helpful if ARIN would make tickets related to this publicly available, so the both the submitter, and the public have a transparent way to see that these types of issues
are followed up on, or that some process is in place.<br>
<br>
Otherwise, the public will not continue to assist ARIN to help clean up this data.<br>

<br>
We are seeing more and more cases of references to 'rwhois' servers that have fallen off line, got broken, forgotten or simply do not exist.<br>
<br>
Those records of course should be updated.. (More importantly, the services should be available)<br>
<br>
Are there any initiatives to make inaccuracy reports more transparent?<br>
This would help greatly in helping ARIN deal with this issue.<br>
