Hi ARIN is making significant improvements to our systems and services. ARIN encourages the community to look for upcoming features as details are available at: https://www.arin.net/features. I would like to clear up the confusion about the changes to access to Bulk Whois that have been discussed in this thread. The next release of ARIN Online on 26 June 2010 will include an easy way of automating bulk Whois reports. ARIN sent an announcement about this change to all current Bulk Whois recipients on 1 June 2010. The current legacy ftp service for Bulk Whois recipients will continue to operate until 31 August 2010. This should allow enough time to make the changes required to your scripts to migrate to the new solution. Regards, Mark Kosters ARIN CTO
