Please be advised that I am opposed to the proposed agreement made between ICANN and Verisign, and the price increases that will follow. I have purchased and held domain names for nearly 20 years, and feel I am a stakeholder in the internet  and domain community.  Decisions that affect me and other domain purchasers should not be made in secret and foisted upon us with no input from us, the customers who ultimately bear the burden of such changes. Please reconsider this agreement and include us in discussions for a more open and fair process.
