Doesn't seem to have made much difference yet...
Their rwhois seems to be terminally down. Can we reclaim 4/8 from them now?
Who is "we?"
IANA says it belongs to BBN (ARIN not mentioned):
http://www.iana.org/assignments/ipv4-address-space
004/8 Dec 92 Bolt Beranek and Newman Inc.
(as opposed to)
073/8 Mar 05 ARIN (whois.arin.net)
074/8 Jun 05 ARIN (whois.arin.net)
075/8 Jun 05 ARIN (whois.arin.net)
076/8 Jun 05 ARIN (whois.arin.net)
Either IANA's records are out of date or the space was granted prior
to ARIN's start (in 97 or so). ARIN (via policies) has little say
over this space.
