Hi Jonas,<BR>
<BR>
I don't know if anyone answered you about this. (I'm just catching up on some emails -- from which I'm WAY behind.)<BR>
<BR>
There's been some talk about creating a "sustaining membership". Would that be something you'd be interested in? Of course, you (and everyone) is welcome on the email lists and the IRC channel, which is another way to stay involved on some level.<BR>
<BR>
See you in Berlin soon!<BR>
<BR>
