<div dir="ltr"><div>I changed the subject line, as this isn't directly related to the dispute between AFRINIC and CI, but more some questions arising from it specifically related to the ARIN registered resources.</div><div>----</div><div><br></div><div>So, do ARIN resource holders have a duty to report changes in their use of resources? If they do, where does that duty come from in policy or contract language? And, what are the relevant changes that need to be reported?</div><div><br></div><div>In my review of these questions;</div><div><br></div><div>In the RSA I see where holders are granted, "The right to use the Included Number Resources within the ARIN database" (RSA section 2.b bullet 2). However, I don't see any limitation to that use, such as "originally justified" or any obligation to report a change in such use.</div><div><br></div><div>In policy, "An end-user is an organization receiving assignments of IP addresses exclusively for use in its operational networks." (NRPM 2.6), with an exception for incidental or transient use (last paragraph, section 2.5).</div><div><br></div><div>Maybe to align end-user requirements with the new Registration Services Agreement we should change that so end-users have to report any use, other than incidental or transient use, outside their organization.</div><div><br></div><div>And ISP's have requirements to report the use by their customers that exceed certain levels (NRPM sections 4.2.3.7 and 6.5.5).</div><div><br></div><div>So, other than the ISP reporting requirements, I don't see direct reporting obligations for change in use. Further, I don't see any guidance to what might be a material change in use that is in need of reporting, as I'm sure we don't want ARIN Staff tied up with reports of all possible changes, most of which are probably irrelevant. </div><div><br></div><div>Are there reporting requirements I'm missing? Maybe implied or indirect requirement?</div><div><br></div><div>Should something be added to ARIN's policies explicitly stating requirements for reporting a change in the use of resources?</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks</div><div><br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Wed, Sep 1, 2021 at 11:27 AM John Curran <<a href="mailto:jcurran@arin.net">jcurran@arin.net</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex">

<div>That presumes that Cloud Innovation actually requested the address space for that purpose, and hence why many are asking Cloud Innovation (and those associated with CI) the question "<b>Is Cloud Innovation’s use of the blocks in question
within the remit and purpose for which they were originally justified?”</b></div>
<div><b><br>
</b></div>
<div>It is a simple yes/no question of fact, but one which has alluded any official answer to date. It’s been suggested that they’ve already said as much in previous emails, but a simple yes/no response doesn’t seem forthcoming – although it would
certainly clarify quite a bit.</div>
