Mmm, I'm not in favor of a membership system. Look at the failure of
EuroZope. How many people did register them as a member? I know I did,
but I think there were only a few. Also, the donation setup at
EuroPython didn't gave lot's of result, while it also clearly states
that the donations will be used for the future of EuroPython. All this
gives me the idea that payed memberships just don't work.

However, the idea of making conference attendees a member is a nice
idea. That could be possible.

Regards,
Tom.
