Unless I misremember, everyone who receives a direct allocation from ARIN and signs an RSA is automatically a member. It's not clear to me what "owner of a /24 network" means in that context. (I don't recall if signing an LRSA in and of itself also makes one a member, since by the time we had signed an LRSA, we had long since received our direct IPv6 allocation under an RSA.) But perhaps Randy is looking for the number of /24 equivalents allocated to legacy resource holders who haven't also received an IPv6 direct allocation or other IPv4 direct allocation under an RSA?

Exactly right John. I think the term "owned" is a problem here.
It seems to me that the terms would correctly be "holder" or who the address space was issued to or "user" being the end user using that space.
Wouldn't all of the holders be ARIN members unless grandfathered in?

Randy -
Happy to generate these - two questions for clarity.
1) Should we expand /16's and /8's into the corresponding number of /24's ? (or do you only want those blocks issued originally as /24's to be counted)
2) In terms of categories, we could go strictly with /24's held by ARIN members versus /24's held by non-members (and resulting percentages); note that would be predominantly ISPs since end-users assignments from ARIN are unlikely to be members unless they specifically opted to join. Alternatively, we could provide counts /24's under RSA, /24's under LRSA, and /24's legacy-no-agreement as the three categories of counts desired (and each percentage of the total)
So, based on above, would you prefer the /24 space statistics as asked (member/non-member) or rsa/lrsa/legacy-no-agreement?
o of the address holders in the arin region, what percentage are arin members?
Will do.
Thanks! /John
