Very, very upset at the proposed .ORG changes |

As the owner of a .ORG site I am very upset at what I've been seeing regarding proposed
changes to this TLD. I use my domain to provide free email and hosting services in
addition to email address for my entire family. Forcing me to relinquish my domain
simply because I'm not an officially registered NPO is simply unacceptable. I pay
my yearly domain renewals and I don't take in a single penny from those to whom I
provide service, so what's the problem? Many of us (especialy those like myself
who have been using the Internet since before it became a buzzword)prefer _not_ to
change email addresses every few years. I dread the thought of having to send a new
email address out to not only all my friends but also many of my creditors who send
me my bills electronically. I think I speak for many .ORG owners and users when I
say that forcing tens of thousands of us to change email addresses by yanking away
our domains will probably result in a class-action suit.
