I think there clearly is an industry-wide trend to move away from 'unsigned plain-text non-authoritative' datasets, towards better sources of truth such as the VRP data available through the RIR RPKI Trust Anchors. There are variances in how stakeholders implement this paradigm shift: some operators move towards wholesale ignorance of non-auth databases (like Tata); some operators use softer transition mechanisms (examples: what RIPE NCC did in lieu of RIPE-731, or how IRRd v4 in its default configuration magically makes RPKI-invalid IRR objects disappear). I think all of us recognize a need to declaw "third party" IRR databases like RADB and ALTDB ("declawing" meaning that it is not desirable that anyone can just register *anything*); on the other hand our community also has to be cognizant about there being parts of the Internet which are not squatting on anyone's numbers *and* also are not contracted to a specific RIR.

I don't have numbers on hand for how much US Gov space is already with ARIN, but this seems like a pretty nice win for ARIN getting an order for the US Gov legacy space attached to them (mentioned by name), while other RIRs are available in that order, I don't imagine it's going to other RIRs :) For clarity, FCEB stands for Federal CIVILIAN Executive Branch. So, this order excludes the military, probably the intelligence agencies, state and local governments, etc. And not everything operated for the Federal government is done on their IP addresses. This won't affect address space assigned to federal contractors.
