<p>Hello,</p>
<p>We used the listing service for reaching interested parties while
taking offers. Having such a list brings the right people
together.</p>
<p>If there was no such list, we had to contact a broker.<br>
</p>
<p>In my opinion this service is useful and should continue to its
life.<br>
</p>

class="">While there are currently 681,000 IPv4 addresses
"offered" on the listing service, when we attempted to match
LIRs that had used the service with those that went on to make a
transfer, we couldn't find much of a correlation. Of the 1,969
LIRs that transferred resources in our service region last year,
only 76 had posted on the listing service and it's not clear
whether the service actually connected the offering/receiving
parties for these cases.</span><br style="caret-color: rgb(0, 0,

lifespan, a full reimplementation would be needed to continue
supporting it. Given that the listing service does not appear to
be adding much in terms of value, spending development time on
this does seem like a good use of members' funds.</span><br
