Brian's response seems reasonable to me.

Hi All,

In reviewing the IASA BCP draft, I noticed that there are no specific 
requirements regarding the level of transparency or openness expected 
from the IAOC.  IMO, we should be careful to start this activity with a 
well-established understanding regarding the level of transparency and 
openness that we expect.

Do we expect the IAOC to keep minutes of their meetings and post them 
publicly (unless there is a specific reason not to post a certain 
section)?  Specific reasons might include:  personnel issue and/or 
sensitive negotiation-position-related information.

yes


Do we expect the IAOC mailing list archives to be publicly available?

no, that would prevent any email on sensitive contractual or personnel
issues


Should the IAOC maintain a web site that lists its members and their 
e-mail addresses?

on ietf.org


Should the same web site also include a record of all written/legal 
correspondence received by or sent by the IAOC (with sections removed if 
absolutely necessary for confidentiality)?

I think that is an onerous requirement


Should all of the official IAOC decisions be announced publicly?

yes, ietf-announce

And/or 
do we expect a regular (monthly?) report on IAOC activities?

I'd say the mandatory frequency should be per IETF meeting


If we think that it is reasonable to require any of these things, which 
ones should apply to the IASA TT that we just formed?

exactly the same ones

IMHO
