FW: Waiver of IP and AS Number Transfer Fees
TWiMC: No doubt most with the responsibility of doing so received this statement, but.... OWN 'M IF YOU GOT 'M--clean up the databases (Unfortunately for me I just paid a $250 on June 27th--lucky me.) j -----Original Message----- From: owner-arin-announce@arin.net [mailto:owner-arin-announce@arin.net] On Behalf Of Member Services Sent: Tuesday, July 02, 2002 3:59 PM To: arin-announce@arin.net Subject: Waiver of IP and AS Number Transfer Fees At the ARIN IX Member's Meeting there was consensus expressed that transfer fees should be waived as a means of encouraging subscribers to participate in database cleanup. The database cleanup effort is a part of the database conversion project. There was overwhelming support for such a waiver for the remainder of the fiscal year.

Please correct me if I am wrong. This is not allowing the practice of selling IPs or ASes, but it encourages those of us who have acquired other companies to consolidate all the registrations under a single NIC handle (for example) to reduce the total number of contacts floating out there? Is my understanding accurate? Thanks, DJ

I've never really come around to fully understand the notion (more and more common, it seems) of _selling_ such..? (Maybe I'm an idealist :)
but it encourages those of us who have acquired other companies to consolidate all the registrations under a single NIC handle (for example) to reduce the total number of contacts floating out there?
Is my understanding accurate?
I would hope so, in a general perspective. mh
Thanks,

The intension is to get the information correct. If company X took over another company who owned a couple /whatevers, or if a company merely changed their name and wanted their ASN to represent that, it would cost $250 to change. Many companies, who aren't in the "we sell IPs business", don't care if the name matches the IP on IANA or ARIN. So, in effort to get the databases straight for the impending "conversion", they've waived the fee. So, it is an opportunity to transfer the lease (not ownership) of IPs without the additional cost. Not sure what the conversion entails, but I know they've recently changed their godforsaken templates... to newly improved godforsaken templates. ---DB cleanup is good for all who have to troubleshoot global IP routing--- j -----Original Message----- From: Deepak Jain [mailto:deepak@ai.net] Sent: Wednesday, July 03, 2002 3:22 PM To: jnelson; nanog@merit.edu Subject: RE: Waiver of IP and AS Number Transfer Fees
