Folks -

It’s important to note that these references shared below are _not_ based on a 
common definition of “legacy number resource"  –

ARIN considers a legacy number resource to be one that’s held by the original 
registrant (or their legal successor, e.g. due to merger) and that was issued 
by one of ARIN’s predecessor registries (NSI/InterNIC, GSI, SRI, Jon) and thus 
transferred to ARIN at the time of our formation.

ARIN extends basic registry services w/o fee or contract to legacy resource 
holders, and offers them the opportunity if they wish to enter into an RSA with 
ARIN, becoming a member and receiving all the same services as every other 
customer, ability to vote in elections etc. only with a special cap on their 
total registry maintenance fees (currently of $175/year, increasing $25/yr) 
that’s applied regardless of total size of IPv4 number resource holdings.

This is done in recognition that these legacy resource holders were involved in 
the earliest days of the Internet.

I understand that in other region "legacy number resource” may have other 
meanings, and in fact may not even be related to the present day party with the 
rights to the address block.

FYI,
/John
