Every time the toxic arguments about legacy holders rear their head on PPML I become more convinced that the legacy holdings should be forked off to a distinct registry. Let legacy registrants sign a contract (or not) which establishes no obligations on the registrant's part and buy services (or not) as they choose. And let ARIN be ARIN without the baggage. As long as the legacy registrants are within ARIN, the fairness question will remain unresolvable. It's not fair that modern registrants face compulsions under an adhesion contract while older registrants do not. Nor is it fair to expect older registrants to accept an adhesion contract whose compulsive nature was not so much as a gleam in anyone's eye when they joined the ranks of TCP/IP users.
