[nc-org] NCDNHC supports initial comments; adds an interestingsuggestion



The noncommercial constituency went along with my initial comments.
Louis Touton has answered my concerns about Appendix K by noting
that the language specifically exempts renewals of existing
registrations. I still think Appendix K is silly policy and compeltely
unneeded, but that issue goes beyond .org divestiture to the 
registry contracts as a whole. 

The constituency provided one supplementary comment 
that is, I think, an excellent suggestion. 

The RFP could tell registry operators to avoid exclusive agreements
with Non-Profit organizsations that are bidding for control of .org, 
so that any non-profit would have access to the same
commercial operator on the same terms.

This would address many of the concerns about fake non-profits
being put forward, and would make it easier for the board to choose
BOTH the best non-profit bidder and the best registry operator.

What do you think?
