One of the transparency problems can be seen at

https://www1.ietf.org/secretariat.html

      The Secretariat is hosted by the Corporation for National Research Initiatives. 
      It can be reached at: 
      IETF Secretariat 
      c/o Corporation for National Research Initiatives 
      1895 Preston White Drive, Suite 100 
      Reston, VA 20191-5434 
      USA 
      +1 703 620 8990 (voice) 
      +1 703 620 9071 (fax) 


Closer examination shows that Foretec are resident at the same (postal) address.

and on the Foretec Web site http://www.foretec.com

      Currently, Foretec's association management and event services contribute
      to the ongoing operation and success of the Internet Engineering Task Force
      - hosted by the Corporation for National Research Initiatives. Foretec has 
      also provided targeted specialty services to the the Corporation for National
      Research Initiatives


If I cared, I would find this impossibly opaque.

Cheers,
Adrian
