Jeff, I have noted the scheduled .us price increase
(50 cents) and the DOC-approved service enhancements
to the .us namespace:

Development of services for certain public resource
second level domains (engagement of business partners
to build enhanced uses for these names by Dec. 1,
2005, and launch of first second level domain and
related services by May 15, 2006.

Development of a .us-specific directory search engine
(partnership with an established provider of directory
services and search engine services by Jan. 15, 2006,
and launch of searching capability by June 15, 2006).

Development of a secure platform for e-government
initiatives that would allow citizens to communicate
and to interact with the U.S. government in a direct
and safe forum (continued discussions with the
Internet Engineering aznd Planning Group and the
DNSSEC Deployment Group, with initiation of next
DNSSEC trial by March 15, 2006, and targeted launch of
platform, by Septemnber 15, 2006).

Can you provide us with any additional details at this
time?  Also, can you perhaps provide us with a link to
the .us "Transfer of Sponsorship of Registrations
between Registrars Policy" dated September 15, 2005? 
It might be interesting to compare your version to the
version now in use by ICANN.
