The end users will certainly be a bit worried by the sudden change.
maybe, maybe not. Quite some won't be reachable or won't exist any more and won't even know that the assignment ever existed (or, for that matter, what an IP address is). Still I expect that a few of those being aware of the issue and actively running services in those netblocks will not be worried. I can only speak for one (ex-) end user organization (albeit one holding several [AU] PI assignments from different [covering] LIRs, so probaly a "large one" in those terms) but I can state that we will be not be worried but in fact *very relieved* once clarity wrt administrative responsibility is reached. It might be noteworthy that these assignments were handed out in the 90s as part of "Internet service" contracts in the corporate space, hence usually (not too tiny) amounts of money were involved. I leave the conclusions to the reader... best Enno > > Cheers, > Daniel > > _________________________________________________________________________________ > Daniel Stolpe Tel: 08 - 688 11 81 > [email protected] > Resilans AB Fax: 08 - 55 00 21 63 > http://www.resilans.se/ > Box 45 094 > 556741-1193 > 104 30 Stockholm > > -- Enno Rey ERNW GmbH - Carl-Bosch-Str. 4 - 69115 Heidelberg - www.ernw.de Tel. +49 6221 480390 - Fax 6221 419008 - Cell +49 173 6745902 Handelsregister Mannheim: HRB 337135 Geschaeftsfuehrer: Enno Rey ======================================================= Blog: www.insinuator.net || Conference: www.troopers.de Twitter: @Enno_Insinuator =======================================================
