No problem.  One of the risks in text communication. =20

I guess the usefulness of the measurement would be in what the original que=
stion is?

If we knew more about what the membership / non-membership question was abo=
ut it would be easier.  I guess if we were really trying to figure out how =
much address space is within ARIN member "control", just the holder would b=
e enough to know.  For example, you could say the X% of space is being used=
 by ARIN members and X% is in use by legacy users.  Since the holder could =
change or revoke access to the space by an end user I guess we could say th=
ey control it. =20

For other questions it might be more important to know who is "using" an ad=
dress space.  Like how much space is issued to end users directly by ARIN v=
s provided to them by service providers.  The two types would have very dif=
ferent rules regarding reallocation and such.
