Hi Ashton, 

As I've told Admin on several occasions, I agree this would be a good thing. But he's been reticent in our conversations about it. 

There are some complications that go along with a subscription/membership model. For instance, I'm sure the pressure on him would be even greater if there were another extended outage, and that may not be worth the benefits right now. Imagine a reversed variation of, "I can't argue with you unless you've paid." IOW, some of us might (intentionally or not) get cranky with Admin if there are uptime issues after paying. 

Let's hold our horses on funding a little longer. We can hash that out some more when chutney's humming along on its wire. 

My $0.02. 

(Best of luck with Sierra.) 

Cheers, 
Scott.
