+1 if only because... >From what I read from Rob in an interview in LWN, membership to the foundation will be funded by membership dues. I think the dues structure is what will eventually determine who can afford to become a member. I'd definitely pay for membership if I could credibly afford it. It seems like the easiest way to make sure this could happen is to charge on a per-person basis rather than on a per-company basis, with larger companies signing up more individuals as necessary/desired. - C _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
