[CPWG] [GTLD-WG] Further Revised Draft Statement on .ORG Renewal

[Justine Chew]

Understood with thanks, Marita. I constantly struggle to balance competing
arguments, in the form of prima facie views of end-users versus those
touching on less-apparent yet broader policy implications, and I know I am
not alone in this.

While I would much prefer if we could come to a consensus statement with a
common position, but on the likelihood that we cannot reach (clear)
consensus, I can make available for the WG's consideration and further
improvements (for eg. including Olivier's point about registry fees) an
alternate re-draft of Greg's 24 April draft.
