It was announced quite some time ago when Melbourne Wireless became an
official non-proffit organisation. According to official org. regulations
this requires official membership, part of which is a legal requirement for
membership fees (minimum $1 sign up and Minimum $2/pa fee...or the other way
around?)

Yet again, a legal requirement that all members who wish to be come a part
of the association. On the default form there is a "i wish to become a
member of XXXX association." This then needs to be signed by two other
currently finiancial members of the association. Tis just a bit of a legal
thing which needs to be done.
