The process is heavy with human interaction, there is nothing "rapid" about it, and bears no comparison to the automated process of registering a domain name. You'd know that if you ever had to make a request for a number resource from ARIN.
The problem of tainted ipv4 allocations probably grows from here since at some point in the near future there isn't going to be much left in terms of "clean" space to allocate. We're running out of v4 addresses in case anyone forgot. Not sure that this is an ARIN problem more than an operational problem since RBL's are opt-in. An effort to identify RBL's that are behaving poorly is probably more interesting at this point, no? Best Regards, Marty
