Yes, but I think, at least in the part for the lobbying, that Drew thinks of that as something that amounts to what I call advocacy. I do lobbying professionally, and it involves expertise, writing papers, documents, filing forms, following strategies, etc. And its a lot of work, so if I were to do this -I'm not doing it for TDF- I would expect, to see my contribution recognized, and would have tangible evidences to show to the membership committee. > > I've read your opinion too and I hope it will definitely prevail in > the end by quantifying the "intellectual" contribution needed in > order to join TDF. > > I simply don't want to see a division and disagreement between devs > and laymen as a respin of the previous division between corporate > employees and volunteers in the OOo Community. While I do absolutely agree that there should be no divide, (heck, I'm no developer myself), I also think that certain activities are appreciated but cannot constitute the only basis for membership consideration. But here, we're going down into details, which is good. Best, Charles. > > Regards, -- Charles-H.
