How many of those are volunteers/host/NOC/future host, and how many are "discretionary comp"?

Does the IAOC have access to the actual list of names?  If so, I think that's good enough, because the corruption that we're trying to solve would require collaboration between the IETF chair and the IAOC. I would say that the risk is low enough that privacy trumps transparency.
