<br>
If the IPv4 Transfer Listing Service is taken down, I hope that
the statistics is left.<br>

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

the offering/receiving parties for these cases.</span><br
