ARIN announced the fact that it received the 69/8 delegation on August 8th. 
ARIN received the delegation on August 6th.  ARIN made its first 
allocation/assignment (I don't know which it was, but that isn't important) 
out of that block on September 19th.

So, that's over 1 month that people had to fix their filters.  We're in 
December now, and clearly some people still haven't updated their filters.

Do people have any suggestions for ARIN (and other RIRs) on how they can 
better dissemenate this information so that people will update their 
filters?
