Hey all,

Sorry I have been away for some time, grab me in channel if you need to 
know why. All that is important is that I am now back. So onto requests 
for Membership:

Ordinary:
Mateu X Hunter
Robin Berjon

Special:
Steffen Mueller
P.T. Kornman

In general response to Jay Shirley's comment on Membership, yes we 
should do all we can to get as many Ordinary members as possible as they 
are a source of revune and sponsorship, but please remember that Special 
members do not get the right to vote on anything, nor can they be 
appointed to working groups etc. Their choice to not contribute 
completely means that we acknowledge their general support but they get 
no benefit from joining us.

Currently there are more Ordinary members than Special members (by a 
count of one). We still need to push our membership drive :)

Thanks all.

Regards

Mark
