APNIC's statistics now list it as 'available'; reissue not confirmed
APNIC's statistics show it reserved on 2015-10-28 and available on 2015-10-29. APNIC moved it from its reserved (held) records to the status it calls 'available'. The tracker saw it removed from registration on 2011-01-21, 1741 days earlier. That is APNIC's own label: whether and when it is reissued is not confirmed.

Removed from active registration. The tracker found it by comparing APNIC's daily statistics. APNIC's statistics show it allocated (dated 2011-01-07) on 2011-01-21 and available on 2011-01-22. Public sources do not distinguish a voluntary return, revocation, or reclamation. APNIC publishes no hold period, and its statistics show a steady one (a year) only for removals from 2014-07-01 on; this one came earlier, so the tracker gives no estimate. This does not confirm availability.

Likely issued from APNIC-controlled inventory
No transfer record matches. APNIC's statistics show it available on 2011-01-07 and allocated (dated 2011-01-07) on 2011-01-08. The tracker saw this range removed from registration on 2008-10-31 (121.50.168.0/21), so it appears to have been issued again from APNIC's pool.

Removed from active registration. The tracker found it by comparing APNIC's daily statistics. APNIC's statistics show it allocated (dated 2007-10-04) on 2008-10-31 and not listed on 2008-11-01. Being gone from APNIC's statistics entirely can also mean it moved to another registry. Public sources do not distinguish a voluntary return, revocation, or reclamation. APNIC publishes no hold period, and its statistics show a steady one (a year) only for removals from 2014-07-01 on; this one came earlier, so the tracker gives no estimate. This does not confirm availability.

RDAP lookups
Not looked up. The tracker queries RDAP for changes as they're reported (on first sight, after 24 hours and after seven days); older changes aren't looked up because today's RDAP says nothing about the past.
