I am no longer an individual sponsor (by svn commit: r779649), so this is just IMHO: # By the way, why there could be no "emertus sponsor" # list? I donated to Python Software Foundation 4yrs ago # and still remain my name listed on the web. I think it # is rather Normal. Really Strange... VeriSign Class 2 is 700USD/page per year IIRC. All the members to have Class2 *for free* would be reasonable. Plus, "donated" committers (e.g. 100USD) to have Class2 would be reasonable as well. WDYT?
