David  -

Are communications with respect to the IANA contract (i.e. ICANN <-> NTIA) 
public?  For example, if NTIA were to not approve of a change, the result 
of that may or may not be noticed, but would it be clear that it did not occur 
because of USG decision?  I honestly do not know, and ask to better understand
the potential risk here.

THanks!
