Under “Observations” I would add something like: 3. .ORG is the only large gTLD that is committed to operate in the public interest One of the reasons for ICANN to exist was to introduce competition in the DNS marketplace It did so by splitting the registry and the registrar function, introducing competition at the registrar level, but also by re-delegating .ORG to a non-profit. This has ensured not only to have a champion of good practices, but also to increase competition because .ORG has a different business model, that is not oriented exclusively to maximization of the profit. Disappearance of this alternative business model will substantially reduce the competition in the marketplace. I know that this is coming quite late, I am sorry for that. However, this point might be relevant because it hints that ICANN is not fulfilling its obligation of fostering competition if it allows the disappearance of an alternative business model for a registry.
