Unfortunately the IAB is not going to give that advice. They seem to have
passed on advising ICANN not to issue .corp which is going to be a total

The report at http://www.icann.org/en/groups/ssac/documents/sac-057-en.pdf is
relevant here (though obviously it is an SSAC document and not an IAB document,
which I think is part of the point you may be making).
It's not 20 pieces of silver at stake here is a quarter million bucks or more a
pop.
FWIW, I think for most larger companies with multi-billion dollar revenues
streams it is less about the up-front fees to apply & operationalize a gTLD
than the long term business potential.
