Considering the ongoing role of NTIA in these proceedings it would seem
appropriate and reasonable for NTIA to be in contact with various
constituencies to gauge the direction that events are taking. It would
also seem that holding these teleconferences would be well within the job
descriptions of NTIA staff. Given the fact that Becky offered to speak
with representitives of the ORSC, I would almost guarantee it.

The difference is that I have no denial that the DNSO.ORG supporters
maintain an invite-only mailing list in which decision making and document
drafting has been taking place.
