Earlier I was chastised for stating unfounded rumor about fees of up to
$20,000/year yet a similar fee structure for new registrations/services
from ARIN is being proposed. Just wanted to point out that I wasn't
referencing unfounded rumor but rather a reference that needed qualified
i.e. allocation services for organizations requesting address space
directly from ARIN.

Sigh.
Would you *please* read the proposal
(http://www.arin.net/arin_proposal.html,
http://www.arin.net/arin_faq.html might also be helpful). If you had you
would
see that the fee is for allocation _services_ and only applicable to
organizations requesting address space _directly_ from ARIN.
