ARIN Conversion: Template Instructions Now Available

[Dawn Martin]

I have a couple of questions:

1)Can a Resource Tech POC complete ALL aspects of SWIPing? In the tutorial,
it only says that
  they can do allocations?

2)Was it ever figured out exactly what contacts were going to be published
in WHOIS?

3)In the replies from the new templates is ARIN going to completely change
the subject line? It
  would be nice if they could just add their ticket number and nothing else.

I think the templates and instructions look very good.  I have a couple
questions.

1.  Can you submit more then one netmod.txt, reassign-simple.txt and
net-name-change.txt?
	a. If you can does End of Template have to be remove like on the old swip
template?
	b. If not can this become an option?

2.  On the old swip template you didn't need to compete all fields when
deleting a reassignment/reallocation.  When returning or removing on the new
netmod and reassign-simple what are the minimum fields that need to be
completed?

If anyone is reading these mailing lists please post some questions.  The
conversion is coming up on us soon and there must be things out there we are
missing or not thinking of.

In February of this year, ARIN released the new templates to be used
after the conversion taking place on August 9, 2002. We have now
modified those templates to include the instructions. These instructions
should provide any guidance necessary to correctly complete a template.

Please note that some of these templates make references to websites
that will not be modified or posted until after conversion. The
templates can be found at:

   ftp://ftp.arin.net/pub/new-templates/

If you have any questions regarding these templates and/or the database
conversion, please address your questions to jumpstart at arin.net.
