Answer: The main reason that we ask participants in the Selection meeting keep the proceedings confidential is surprise. We do not want anyone to know who was selected until the January MICA meeting announcement. Over the years we have been very successful with that surprise and people really say how much they love that part. It is a lot simpler to have one general rule to not share anything that happens in the room, than to have a qualifying rule with exceptions that says you can share a, b, c, but not x, y and z.
