That's not a bad idea, and it might well to the job (Paul has been
studying these things rather longer than the 2 or 3 days I have, so
I'd like to hear from him). £250 sounds like a reasonable price,
although I'm not sure I can really afford it. While I expect the
chapter will be around long enough to make it worthwhile, that doesn't
necessarily mean I'll be interested in being a member of the chapter
that long. I'm a student with very little income, so it's a big
commitment. Perhaps there are 19 more wealthy Wikimedians in the UK
that can help!
