I appreciate the opportunity to submit the following comments regarding the proposed renewal terms of the .org Registry Agreement. My comments pertain specifically to the 'Pricing for Domain Name Registrations and Registry Services (Section 2.10 of the .org renewal agreement)'. These comments represent my personal opinion and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or opinions of any professional organizations and employers that I am affiliated with. As a member of the constituency who has utilized retail domain name registry services on the behalf of multiple organizations of various sizes, I am concerned about and do not support the proposed removal of current stipulations that limit the price of registrations and allowable price increases for registrations, as this pertains specifically to .org domains. The .org TLD is unique amongst all TLDs in representing an important concept to internet users of a typical, non-commercial enterprise. There is therefore substantial value for usage of this domain across a wide array of not-for-profit efforts, many of which have severely limited resources. In addition, fiscal predictability of future expenditures is oftentimes critical for small to moderately-sized non-profit organizations. The proposed grandfathering of existing domain owners' renewals is insufficient to address these concerns and the proposed changes may, therefore, provide significant and unneccessary future barriers and other constraints on the establishment, visibility, and viability of small organizations' internet presences that have important social and societal benefits. I therefore urge ICANN to reject the currently proposed amendment to the 'Pricing for Domain Name Registrations and Registry Services (Section 2.10 of the .org renewal agreement)' Sincerely, Marc Natter Director of Research Informatics, Childhood Arthritis & Rheumatology Research Alliance Principal Investigator, Computational Health Informatics Program, Boston Children's Hospital
