Dear Community.
Is a membership something the Fink community would consider accepting?
Absolutely not. I think this is a ridiculous idea. The beauty of fink is that it is free. Charging money would turn fink into just another software company. Users of fink would be cut in half at least, probably much less than that.
Being a nonprofit, like Debian, so that fink can accept donations is one thing, but requiring payment for membership, if that is what you are suggesting, is out of the question in my opinion.
This is merely a step to improve our service toward the community. Fink is a big project and the bigger it gets, the more infrastructure it needs.
I'm not a megalomaniac. I don't care to see fink grow into a megalocom. I happen to like the small-shop nature, community-awareness and spirit of volunteerism of fink.
PS: David H�hn aka Darian Lanx aka dmalloc _always_ refers to me!
Why do you have two names?
