From what I understand, it would give verisign the power to adjust prices...at will.  While this may have some advantages,  its putting SMEs at great disadvantage. 

In Africa, It's hard enough that so many factors (ranging from government policies to structural amenities)  are militating  SME growth or scaling  but now add a sudden probable change to price of .com domains. 

Hope a goos decision is reached.
