Not really. We probably should. I'm a little unclear on exactly what would be required and how much it's going to cost.

I'm happy to help out, as it's quite easy to fill out the SWIP forms and then submit it. We could setup rwhois for the 44/net space, but that might be a bit much for us as the portal is not always available.
ARIN should not charge a fee to administrator resources for legacy users:
10. I have legacy resources registered in ARIN's Whois database but have no plans to sign the LRSA. Will ARIN continue to maintain my records, and can I still make database changes to my records if I need to?
ARIN will continue to process requests from the authorized points of contact of legacy resources for updates to their registration records. Currently, there is no community driven policy specifically prohibiting ARIN from processing updates to records that are not covered under a LRSA or RSA, although that could change in the future.
info on swip is here https://www.arin.net/resources/request/reassignments.html
Basically you could swip the regional blocks to the regional admins, and when they assign them they swip the assigned blocks to end users. This would fix the in-addr.arpa mapping too, which as of now does not exist for anything on AMPRNET.
Thoughts?
