>> *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?
