Hrm, I'm just worried about the confusion by having 3 sorts of
membership - I rather think this would do more harm than good :/

I'd quite like to see some of the stats/funds that FoG is achieving
before deciding more though. With the possibility of having this
newsletter idea that I suggested, I think it could work to merge the
two.

I rather think that we have a strong share in that though. What ever
