If anyone is ever interested in paying me to write up the history of
the founding of IxDA, I'd be more than happy to. 8-)

The short answer is that we have always said we would be "memberless"
b/c we didn't want to compete. This choice probably with a few other
environmental factors drove a lot of the design decisions.

We also early on took the DTDT to a separate list (yes, it is
sometimes back now, but often about defining everything else except
IxD), and we made sure the archives and now the web site were open to
the public.
