If you can't afford $250 a year for ARIN, you probably shouldn't be
starting a new business. That seems a little tone deaf and extremely insensitive to a lot of non-profit organizations who fight for every penny they can. -Matt On Fri, Jul 14, 2023 at 3:06 PM Darin Steffl <darin.steffl () mnwifi com> wrote:

I can also see how it might be taken differently by those in the know. "There is a temporary IPv6 fee waiver for organizations in the 3X-Small service category." I can see that as both "(new) organizations (that aren't currently registered) that are the size of a 3X-Small..." and "(existing 3X-Small) organizations that are (already registered and) the size of a 3X-Small..." It seems somewhat unclear to me if it applies to new registrants or if it's a perk for existing registrants to grow. Just my $0.02 worth as I drive by.
