IMC and ISC are making a bid to run the .org registry thats up for new management. And they're the only non-profit bidders in the running for this non-profit domain.
Sad really isn't it, putting the management of this resource up for the highest bidder. And of course people like Verisign have made such a good job of it anyway.
Well I've added my name to the Petition and you can tell ICANN yourself.

I'm pretty horrified by this because - of course - I've just invested a certain amount of money in the .org domain with a three-year renewal of plasticbag.org.

A friend of mine, parallel to this, has put up this site:

VerisignOff :: Take back your name from Verisign

I wonder if he knows about this....
