[Linux-aus] Proposal: *voluntary* paid membership

[Mary Gardiner]

The broad concensus in this thread seems to be that a donation structure would
do just as well as an optional paid membership tier, especially given the
likelihood that benefits for the paid tier wouldn't be forthcoming in the
short/medium term.

If anyone has ideas about a structure for donations (in the sense of what would
the money go to? a project or set of projects? which one(s)? or general
operating funds? ...?), do share them! Otherwise Council will no doubt disgorge
a proposal from its depths in the fullness of time.
