Albert - ARIN isn’t particularly “trying hard” to get entities to sign a registration services agreement – we inform legacy resources holders of its availability and the fact that under it that they'll receive our registration services with the maintenance fees per end-users, only with a cap on their total invoice due to legacy status <https://www.arin.net/fees/fee_schedule.html#legacy_fee> We also inform them of the registry services that they receive if they are not under a registration services agreement <https://www.arin.net/resources/legacy/services.html> > However, I suspect most of the /24's reflected in the chart are actually part > of those /8's that we have been discussing and that a small holder of just 2 > /24's such as the one that started this thread are in fact VERY rare.

I’ll note that you use the term “members”, whereas you probably mean contracted customers – end-user organizations and legacy holders with agreements are “customers”, as opposed to legacy resource holders receiving basic services (who are effectively “customers w/o contract”) The term “ARIN Member” applies generally to ISPs (who via their Registration Services Plan often are paying significantly more for registry services) and those end-users/legacy holders who opt to become ARIN Members or become ARIN Members by opting for a Registration Services Plan. > Knowing the balance between members and non members is important in > understanding how important this issue is to the community. > > Is there any statistics on: > > Total number of entities who hold legacy resources? > > Average number of /24's of legacy space that these entities hold? > > Total number of these entities that hold a /22 or less of legacy space? > > Total number of these entities that hold an /8 or more of legacy space? > > Percent of /24's that do not pay dues at all? We will research and prepare some statistics regarding block distribution among legacy resource holders.
