        these questions were asked in response to Owens views on
        the ARIN reclaimation process in the case of documented
        transfers outside the existing ARIN processes.

        my assertion to Owen was that his views would apply directly
        to the folks under a standard RSA.  My reading of the
        LRSA suggests that ARIN has a much narrower remit on recovery
        of resources covered by that document. the third camp was/is
        a much thornier patch of ground, fraught w/ peril if ARIN
        takes action on recovery, at least imho.  #4, well that sounds
        like fruitful ground for inter-RIR coordination.

        for example, if 75% of the total resource under ARIN administration
        is legacy, then 25% is covered by the standard RSA.  Within the 75%,
        6% of it is under LRSA and 15% of it is under the standard RSA.

        if this characterization is in ballpark, then Owens view on
        reclaimation only holds for ~30% of the resource under ARIN administration.


        Correct?
