The good news is that they can do whatever they want with their space except make ARIN recognize a transfer. They are under no contractual or legal obligations to ARIN whatsoever. To transfer the block, the buyer will have to jump through all of ARIN's hoops after which your agency can sign an LRSA for the block to be sold just long enough to sell and transfer it (ending the LRSA contract). The bad news is that unless they become an ARIN ISP, pay up and sign contracts agreeing to obey ARIN's ISP rules, the whois information for any rented address blocks will continue to lead right back to them. That will make renting to private organizations challenging. Regards, Bill Herrin -- William Herrin ................ her...@dirtside.com b...@herrin.us Dirtside Systems .........
