I think that it's going to need to be made clear what it even means to be either a member or an officer. And does any of that relate to the development teams for the various d-programming-language projects on github? While having an official, legal entity for D aside from Digital Mars is certainly a big step, I'm not sure that it's at all clear what it really means or how it will affect D aside from the fact that it's an entity to which people can donate money and which will then spend that money towards the betterment of D. Certainly, none of that is clear to me, and I expect that it's the same for many others (and much of it may be completely undecided at this point, but these are details that are going to need to be clear to the D community at some point and which aren't necessarily particularly clear right now). - Jonathan M Davis
