I can't imagine, as a percentage, a significant amount of voting ARIN members give a crap about what happens with legacy resources.there are more legacy non-members than total members. wonder why?
The real issue with Mike's statement is that there are more non-legacy ARIN registrants under contract than there are ARIN members, all of whom must pay ARIN more for IPv6 and most of whom must deploy IPv6 if we're ever to be rid of IPv4. ARIN is attempting to partially resolve that with their upcoming fee schedule (with prior non-members paying more of course) but it still leaves a lot of folks out in the cold including some (like Owen and myself) who pay ARIN for services but can't and won't be able to have IPv6 addresses without paying ARIN more. I don't precisely view this as unfair but I do think it harms the community by creating an unnecessary drag on IPv6 deployment. Is ARIN fee fairness valuable enough to you that you're willing to extend the time you have to buy IPv4 addresses at market price? It shouldn't be! And if it isn't, you ought to let ARIN know because they seem pretty confident fee equity between IPv4 and IPv6 *is* that important, not in the future but right now.
