Can you explain where these numbers came from?  How much do you think
.org makes now?  How big do you think the investment is?  Here in the
US where PIR is located ten year government debt pays under 2% and
nothing I can think of pays 10%.

Surely you don't think that doubling the fees would double the income,
since parked domains and other casual registrants would likely not
renew.

Tnx,
