If the allocation and reassignment of address space has no policy associated with it, then there's no doubt that most of the registry functions can be automated, and there's no need for the associated policy development process, public policy meetings, travel, conference calls. Quite a bit

John, I will concur with Randy that much of the travel that ARIN funds is excessive. ARIN has a booth at trade shows so i'm going to guess that entire setup with travel costs about $20,000 - 50,000 per show. Why? To convince me to use ARIN for my IP space needs? To convince us to switch to IPv6?
