I can see Vanuatu coming up with an "instant non-profit org" registration
system whose potential for revenue greatly exceeds dotTV.

And since it doesn't involve any need for checking world-wide non-profit
status for every .org applicant, it's going to be a darn sight easier and
cheaper than what is on the horizon.

So, let's face facts, save a great deal of hassle for all involved, and
leave .org as an open TLD.

I know NSI doesn't want it that way, because it dislikes competition, and
but that's just TOO BAD.
