I am and have been a .org registrant since 1999. Legacy gTLDs like .org are fundamentally different from ever burgeoning list of for-profit new gTLDs. Legacy TLDs should be considered a public trust, unlike the new gTLDs which were created, bought and paid for by private interests. Registrants of legacy TLDs are entitled to price stability and predictability and should not be subject to possible uncapped price increases while receiving no benefit whatsoever in return. Any renewal of the .org registry agreement must have a clause restricting fee increases to the current maximum of 10% and preferably to a smaller percentage given the current world economic circumstances. ICANN appears to be currying favour with registries by removing price controls at the expense of the public interest and registrants.
