>
>    - How will NTIA collect and assess proposals? Has a process been
>    determined? Is there a timeline in place for a decision?
>    - Does transition of the IANA functions out of NTIA have implications
>    for national security?
>    - How will NTIA ensure that any transition is smooth and does not
>    affect the daily functioning of the Internet?
>    - What will be the result if NTIA does not receive a proposal that
>    satisfies the criteria it set forth? Does NTIA plan to exercise the
>    automatic option for renewal on the IANA contract if a satisfactory
>    proposal is not received?
>    - What sort of multi-stakeholder community would be the ideal
>    replacement for NTIA's role in the IANA functions?
>    - What safeguards will be in place to prevent a future change that
>    would allow for governments to seize control?
>    - What oversight role should Congress play to ensure a successful
>    outcome.
>    - What will be the practical impact of this transition on Internet
>    users and businesses that utilize the Internet for commerce?
