.org domains are an established and integral part of nonprofit web site AND email communication. Because of that established BRANDING by organizations without a lot of funds to redevelop BRANDING, it is particularly vulnerable to price gouging. Please retain the existing price increase limitations for .org domains, or you are possibly creating a disaster for the organizations that may need the price limitations the most. And because almost all nonprofits are unaware of what is being considered that will impact their own domains, they are likely not to respond kindly to the news if you allow full scale price gouging. That does not seem like a public relations event that benefits ICANN. Wayne Kessler
