You can participate in discussions about upcoming developments, express wishes, get sneak previews, get your problems solved (meetings are quite efficient for that). For several years I'm TUG member and always add some small donations for the LuaTeX project, free fonts etc. so I wonder whether e.g. LuaTeX is really getting some support from TUG membership? Tug and other user groups sponsor projects. In the beginning of Luatex there were projects defined (the bulk of code conversion from pascalweb to cweb + some extensions were a project), but the oriental tex project also contributed. Mplib and metapost 2 coding were sponsored by groups too. The crited project made it possible to integrate luajittex and luatex and it also supports the rewrite of the bibliography subsystem in mkiv (in fact this is the only time that writing related tex code is sponsored). Currently tug sponsors projects like texgyre and swiglib. The text and math font project(s) are mandate for the (future) success of tex and need substantial funding the upcoming decade too. We made estimates during BT but expect most to be covered by usergroups, possible as long as they have paying members. Groups that systematically contribute are tug, dante, ntg, cstug and gust. Afaik the context group is considering participation too. The context group is in principle an independent entity (same level as tex user groups) but can also support projects. For me, people meeting (and making sure they can meet and discuss) is also a project.

[NTG-context] Conditional keep-with-next rules
