| Historical Context |
In June 2002, The Internet Multicasting Service and the Internet Software Consortium teamed up to submit a proposal to ICANN to become the .org TLD operator.
At the end of the bidding process, the following 632 comments of support were accounted for at our web site.
In addition to these comments, 389 supporters added a little blue dot to their web sites. Of course,
Googilla kept tracking the dot long after the final tally.

Subject: I support the IMS/ISC proposal!
Posted by Claes Persson at 07.01.02 @ 10.13 AM |
I agree with all that's been said thus far and don't have anything new to add except my support.
And that ".org is a public trust".

Subject: obviously YES

So obvious, it hurts -- and yet likely to be ignored or,
worse yet, bulldozed, by the profit-hungry.
This proposal to administer the .org TLD is excellent, worthy,
the right thing to do.
you have my vote for .org as a public trust. Verisign and other corporate registrars are doing such a poor job we need technically adept registrars, particularly for .org.
(I am webmaster for 2 .org domains, centralpc.org and headhuggers.org)

I'm definitely backing this idea. Non-profit is the trustworthy way to go.

Subject: Let a dot-org run dot-org

It's a no-brainer. I am absolutely in support of this proposal. Maintain the public trust.
.org run by a public trust is a wise idea.

.org must remain free from .com

Subject: support for IMS to run .org TLD
Posted by Tim at 07.01.02 @ 05.29 AM |
Versign has currently lost one domain name from our accounts that was recently paid for. This is one of several problems I have had in 2 years
Lets get rid of greedy innefficient profit seeking Domain Registrars.

Subject: Nous encourageons et soutenons cette candidature
Posted by Serge K. Keller at 07.01.02 @ 04.29 AM |
Une orgaganisation ý but non lucratif est la seule proposition de gestion de TLD possible pour servir les utilisateurs et les propriÈtaires des domaines, et non pas uniquement une minoritÈ de parties intÈressÈes.
Ce poiunt est particuliËrement vital en ce qui concerne le TLD en .org.
C'est pourquoi nous appuyons pleinement cette candidature.

That we even have to dicuss whether a non-profit or insidious-commercial enterprise control TLDs is insane. Non-profit is the obvious choice, if nothing more than we have already seen how commercial enterprises serve us netizens and the world.
IMS, you have my vote.
