It has come to my attention that ICANN has made secret decisions last month regarding the contract with Verisign, Inc., which will significantly affect internet users and the ICANN community.  I strongly object to these changes, especially how it will affect costs and increases to .com domains in the foreseeable future.  I urge you to allow feedback from the community before such an agreement and significant changes are finalized, otherwise this will eventually impact the future of ICANN.
