question about in-addr.arpa

One thing I've not quite figured out is why ARIN is proposing to do
in-addr.arpa for IPs. Last I checked that should be maintained by the folks
the IPs are registered to no? I know I myself and Networks On-Line do the
in-addr.arpa for our /19's, and MCI (when you can get them to get off their
butts to do something) will swip out IPs to the folks they delegate IPs to.
This in and of itself is a large portion of the 'database maintenace' we're
supposed to be paying for, and really isn't needed.
