I think the listening to specifically as a result of the announcement
perhaps has just began. ;) However I agree that it doesn't have to be blown
beyond proportion especially if NTIA is okay with the process.

Cheers!

potential execution partners anyone with a financial interest in the domain

group. So for instance, it can say 5 per the 4 major stakeholder category.

is a good start - but there will need to be a sustained outreach beyond
that. It is also not going to be sufficient to rely upon email lists or
other technological mechanisms - many, especially in governments, simply
don't work that way. This process will need to got to where non-technical
stakeholders go, not oblige them to go to technical community meetings.
