<font face="Calibri">The proposed amendment is not in the best
interest of the Internet community. Verisign will reap massive
profits on something they arguably can no longer take any credit
for. The .COM namespace should now be considered public property
not to be held hostage by one registrar. If you are unable to
enact a policy which fulfills that objective, at least do no harm.
Leave things as they are until such an arrangement can be made.<br>
