I'm sorry, but I'm not seeing that.  What makes you think that this was
other than a set of simple intra-company transfers (and NOT a set of
inter-RIR transfers)?

I just checked the biggest block (77.220.64.0/19) at the URL that people
here gave me, and it appears that this came from a company called
"Internet One SRL" which appears to be located in Romania.

Last time I looked, Romania was still within the RIPE region, so I wonder
how you concluded that this was an inter-RIR transfer.

Worse, I can't get full history (from WHOIS) on the blocks.

But I think this (WHOIS full history) problem/issue was discussed awhile
back on the DB Working group mailing list, and I think the decision was
reached to try to make available fully histories of blocks, even across
inter-company transfers.

But it seems like maybe that didn't quite get fully implemented yet.
