<pre wrap="">To the ICANN Board,

As a small business operator, with substantial effort and time invested in my 
domain names, you need to know about my strong opposition to this proposed 
lifting of price controls. Instituting variable pricing will seriously hinder 
the ability for small business owners from operating effectively against the 
bigger, moneyed players. Small business makes up a significant portion of the 
economic engine in most countries these days. Not only are you affecting 
internet-only business but also all those small to medium-sized businesses who 
rely on the internet to effectively remain in contact with their clients and 
provide services and information to them. Your decision to go forward with an 
uncapped pricing policy will have tremendous implications that may well impact 
the health and vitality of the internet itself.

I respectfully request that you reconsider and reconstruct these contracts and 
remove the no price caps clause completely.
