Well, I can tell you that the "Find Networks Method" would not be
terribly helpful for us.
Our process for keeping SWIP up to date looks something like this:
1) Obtain reassignment report
2) Obtain our internal list of what subnets we have active
3) For each item in the reassignment report, see if we have an active
subnet. If the information no longer matches, delete the SWIP entry.
If we don't have a subnet, delete the SWIP entry.
4) For each subnet in our internal list, see if a SWIP entry exists (by
checking the data returned by the reassignment report). If not, issue a
create
The proposed "Find Networks Method" only seems like it would help for
error checking in step 4 (allowing us to verify the reassignment we're
attempting doesn't conflict)
"Update Network Registrations Method" looks like it would be far more
helpful to us. It seems like the intent here is to allow us to just
upload a big request with all of our registration data (and not have to
worry about what's already there). That definitely would eliminate a
lot of the pain we have with the whole SWIP process.

All,
Some months back there were discussions on this mailing list regarding the
difficulty of using Reg-RWS. Here is what I wrote at the time:
"So that we can address these issues, here is what I propose. I will create
specification document outlining new methods and payloads for Reg-RWS, and I will
send it to this list for discussion and to get your collective input. Once we have a
document we agree will address these issues, it can be put forward as a request for
ARIN implementation.”
I am attaching a document that is the proposal as mentioned above. Your
feedback on it would be greatly appreciated. And please note that this is just
a proposal and not a commitment to change Reg-RWS.
Thanks for you time and patience.

Chief Engineer, ARIN
