Andrew,
Is it your intention to create a single class of users (ie. no more End-User vs
ISP), or maintain the distinction? I'd like to see end-users be able to SWIP,
but I'd don't want to see their costs increase because of it. Also, ISPs will
argue if end-users can SWIP (which is probably the
As a IPv4 end user I can understand why some would want this ability, but we
have no desire to do such. What if instead policy would allow end users to
either elect to be treated as a ISP, or pay a fee to have access to SWIP? This
would be similar to how voting rights are allocated now. BTW

I wonder if SWIPped addresses would be a sufficient display of utilization, or
would ARIN need to investigate the SWIPped blocks more deeply to ensure
utilization ratio of the parent end-user, if that end-user comes to ARIN
looking to buy addresses and has to justify their purchase?

The intention is to allow for end-users to be able to add reassignment
records to the database. As noted in the policy proposal, this idea has
an impact of the fee categories, because the ability to add reassignment
records traditionally has been one of the differences between ISPs and
end-users.
Well, this proposal scares me..
Similar to what is alluded to below, ARIN has a hard enough time getting
the ISP's to properly SWIP usage..
And allowing end users to SWIP might even set the stage for more abuse.
I could see spammers changing the SWIP daily to their advantage.. (oh,
