What do you mean? Address space has been assigned by ARIN:

        There is no 24.in-addr.arpa zone.  There are specific delegations
        underneith it.

        There are no nameservers for this zone, as demonstrated by your
        nslookup query. 

        Also, ARIN records the registrations made by the IANA. This was 
        the process as of four months ago, which was up to the point
        that Jon left us.  Josh has told me that the IANA still approves
        every 24.in-addr.arpa delegation since this is the range for
        cable deployment and cable is not reserved for the ARIN service
        area.  (yes cable does exist in Europe and Asia !)
