I'd expect it almost all to be unused at time of transfer (save transfers between organizational elements of single company), but some of the blocks very clearly have been in use before any transfer (typically lightly utilized, e.g. /19 of a /16 block) > - are many/most of the internal transfers the result of organizational > changes > and thus involve live address space? These are fairly common occurrence, as organizations work to move address space among business units that need such. > - would most of the transfers to APNIC involve only ARIN and APNIC as > parent CAs? At this time, yes. We don't see a lot of organizations running their own CA, but clearly that could change in the future. > - would most of the intra-ARIN transfers have ARIN as the common parent Yes, I would expect that to be the case, at least for the immediate future.
