This is one of those rare times that I agree with William. We have spend
time and money developing our .org names. Why should we lose this
investment now that Verisign wants to keep the .com registry and is willing
to negotiate away the other two to keep it.
We registered these domains under an interpretation of the rules by Network
Solutions that allowed it when they needed the money from the extra
registrations, we have paid for them each year and we see no reason we
should suddenly be asked to give them up.
If we are requested to give them up, we expect to be compensated for the
time and money that we have invested in them to date.

This, also, would be unacceptable. Especially after encouraging
commercial interests to move into this namespace.
There is no constructive reason for this policy to be permitted to
move forward, and I hope everyone here will endeavor to vigorously
oppose it.
