The decision to submit an application for re-delegation was presumably made 
my the board well before the Stockholm meeting - yet no details / 
discussions appear anywhere. I am also troubled by the priority given to 
media. It should take less than 5mins to post copies of the documents 
already provided to the IANA.  The decision to apply for re-delegation was 
not a spontaneous one made in Stockholm, why do we have to wait a week or 
ten days until after the request has been made for postings on the auDA 
site and... why should we have to wait until you have prepared a "full 
media release"... seems you have already been giving interviews. Seems to 
me that the "details" of auDA activities often show up well after we hear 
about it in the press.
