Put it another way - what _assigned_ resources (the use of the word

Hi Mark,

The answer is: so-called "legacy" IP addresses which were assigned by
one of the incarnations of the "InterNIC" prior to ARIN's inception in
1997 and for which the registrants have subsequently declined to sign
a contract with ARIN.


Thanks Bill, I should've thought of this!

So I suppose that 'subsequent decline' position will need to be reconsidered by agencies thus within that scope.

Presumably the RIR relationship is seen to deliver advantages from a risk management perspective.

Mark.
