I very much want to have an active and participatory
role in the chapter.
However, being a student membership costs in the order of thousands p.a. is
completely infeasable. Most students (who seem to be a considerable
Wikidemographic) struggle to keep alive, so would also be excluded. Unless
there were extreme concessions, this would not work.
The idea being proposed, which I'm not entirely sure about yet, was
that the chapter would pay 1000s to the Foundation in return for being
a member of the Foundation, not that members of the chapter would ever
pay anything like this.
The fees for members should probably be something similar to those for
the French and German chapters, which are 35 € and 24 € per year
respectively (approx £23 and £16), with discounts for those on low
incomes.
