Comments: 
I think tangible benefits, such as t-shirts and such, should be made
available as options for people to buy separately.

Similarly, donations/fees might be a separate concern.

Solidarity and identity with W3C, and feedback into the technical and
priority agendas, should be separate from any financial transactions or
goods.
