>> *Topics*:
>>
>>    - 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?
