Personally, I prefer the old contract.
I believe that the separation between Registrar and Registry (or, rather, to 
keep the principle of the separation) will be more beneficial than the 
reassignment of .org.

The reassignment of .org is just a matter of "quantity", i.e. it reduces (of 
a quantity of which the significancy is doubtful) the overall market share 
of Verisign, while the current contract aims at changing the quality of the 
presence, i.e. prevent contemporary presence at the Registry and Registrar 
level for the same TLD.

This was, BTW, one of the basic principles of the contract, and to abandon 
this is a major change that has to be discussed.
In other words, if the community consensus is to take a different approach, 
fine, but this needs a major decision, and cannot be done in very limited 
time under the blackmail of a contract deadline.
