The user assigned codes are part of the published ISO 3166 standard.  If 
that's not stable enough, neither is any ccTLD.  What if they decided to 
swap .US and .SU?  Jaap assured us they're not going to change, and he 
should know.

The politics about this at ICANN are hopeless.  There are still six 
applications for corp, home, and mail who would object loudly if ICANN 
said they were permanently unavailable and who torpedoed Lyman Chapin's 
proposal to add them to the 6761 list.  Fighting that is not a good use of 
anyone's time.

R's,
