<p class="MsoNormal">I don't think we know how "community non-objection/approval" will actually work, in practice, on the ground.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">MM: Do we know who the next NTIA and Congress will work, in practice, on the ground? The question answers itself. To push this off to the next administration
is to introduce a completely new and unknown set of factors into the situation – without in any way improving the reforms.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">So yes - if it works as designed, the transition's not "irrevocable. But if the constraints on the Board, and those community non-objection/approval mechanisms, turn out to be not nearly as effective in actual practice as everyone thinks
they will be, then in effect it is. <span style="color:#1F497D"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">MM: And US Commerce Dept approval? How revocable is that once we lose this opportunity to get rid of it? Have you given that any thought?
