I appreciate that. I think the question is made. We can take whatever we want from the statistics, and we'll figure that out.

I just have one short mop-up question, if that's okay.

In regard to the confidentiality obligations under the program, there has been a lot of criticism related to the fact that since 2000, we have not seen all of the names, the amount of funding, and at least some cursory explanation of how they are being funded.

Is there a time limit for the confidentiality obligations? At some point under the language rights program, does the confidentiality obligation lift?
