Dear NCSG / NPOC Members,
Earlier in 2019 a couple of conversations on price caps in the proposed
renewal of .ORG Registry Agreement came up as a hot topic and there were
lots of public comments on the implication of removing a price cap for the
dor ORG.
NPOC through the then Chair (Joan Kerr) submitted an open letter and public
comment on NPOC's rejection of removing the price cap. (see the attachment
to understand the context for those just catching up on the issue).
NameCheap an ICANN registrar took ICANN to the Independent Review Process
(IRP) panel and a verdict/recommendations were made.
The links below are public statements from both ICANN and Namecheap.

I'm still searching for the IRP panel report but can't find it. So whoever
finds it first should kindly share.
Why this email: This is for our general information and to suggest that
these issues should be one of the things we should watch out for and engage
at the next ICANN meeting as I suspect this issue will always come back to
the community for more conversational input.
