Does GoDaddy strike you as the kind of organization that would give away a 2-letter .org domain out of the goodness of their hearts? This whole "project" strikes me as a way for GoDaddy to charitywash a campaign to sell some squatter's (eNom) 1- and 2-character domains. Naturally the "right organizations" will be Fortune 50 companies or VC-backed startups; which is why we're reading about it here, I imagine.

The domains were not squatted. The .ORG registry never permitted 1 or 2 letter .ORG domains to be registered until now.

    Also: http://of.org/ http://of.org/ Which also appears to be a squatter, only a deeply weird one. (Watch the logo animation: "Old Age Foundation"? "Orphanage Foundation"?!)
