This is not intended to be SPAM, but a legitimate request for advice.  An
organization I work for, holds a registered full class 'B' address range.
Since we are moving to an RFC 1918 based addressing scheme, we are looking
to "sell" the rights to utilize our class 'B'.  Having no experience with
this, I can only assume that perhaps a secondary tier ISP may have an
interest in this, but I have no idea where to begin, or if this has value at
all.  Can someone provide me with some advice relative to what types of
organizations might be interested in such a purchase, who they might be, and
any other pertinent information.  I'm aware that ARIN provides this type of
thing for a price, that they publish on their Web site.  I'd like to
reiterate that I'm not looking for buyers through this forum, but advice on
how I might go about pursuing this.

Oh no!  You've haven't been reading the list this week have you?  I'm sure 
you'll get a few other responses though.  Probably from web hosting 
companies... j/k ;-)

It is generally frowned upon to re-assign your Class B space to another party,
sorry.
