"A demo of this service has been available since October 2009. The
demonstration service is available at
http://whoisrws-demo.arin.net.";
From: https://www.arin.net/announcements/2010/20100611.html
The announcement of the new API was sometime last year, before October when
they put the demo server up, giving developers at least 9 months of lead time
before the new service went live. The announcement of July 15 was merely a
"relaunch" of the service which showed problems when it was officially
launched for the first time on June 26, 2010.
Your apparent outrage over my simple question is unjustified, Jordan.
