But ... what of berkeleylug.ORG?
It expires 2019-05-17T04:39:28Z.
We ought to, by about 2019-04-17T04:39:28Z decide to either
o let it go (expiring 2019-05-17T04:39:28Z), or
o renew it (possibly also transferring registrar from domains.google.com)

IMHO, I think Berkeleylug.ORG should just be left to disappear.

While a few other vocal advocates have put forward cogent arguments to the effect that it doesn't really hurt to keep around Berkeleylug.ORG (e.g., due to cybersquatting, misdirecting site visitors,...etc), I rather see it that .ORG can be safely discarded without any significant loss of popularity compared to BerkeleyLUG.COM. Never even really knew for certain that BerkeleyLUG.ORG existed before, myself.

Just my own 2 cents.
