I am a .org registrant, as are many of my customers. I am opposed to treating one of the oldest TLDs with the rules of newer TLDs. I have always viewed .org, along with .biz and .info, as one of the foundational TLDs, which requires a level of stability if organizations are meant to take it seriously. I will no longer be able to advise clients on .org usage if it starts using pricing models that the newer registries use. There are already many registries with low registration fees but 2-3x higher renewal rates. And then there are "premium" names that cost hundreds per year forever. My clients typically stay away from them. Please reconsider introducing these pricing models to .ORG. It will cause my clients a lot of frustration.
