This is why I think the model is using (amongst others) is the right approach rather than the pure donations model.

Donations tend to need deep pocketed contributors, and tend to turn into PBS pledge drives.

Coops have reasonable cost subscription, self-funding and self-governance all in one.

@EricCarroll in the coop model, is everyone expected to pay?

@jerry @EricCarroll Yep, $50/year. We'll have room to do scholarships if/when we get big.

You could also have tiered membership with a membership level that explicitly offsets N free members.
