In response to Janusz Bien's inquiry regarding TUG membership fees:


Individual memberships are US$60; student memberships US$50.
Individual members receive TUGboat and TeX and TUG News for the
membership year and may vote in the TUG election.


Institutional memberships may be obtained in 3 different categories,
each membership allowing the institution to designate some number
of individuals to receive all privileges of individual membership.
For lack of better terms, the categories are labelled A, B, and C
and allow for 7, 12, and 30 individual memberships, respectively.
Institutions may also supplement their memberships with additional
individual memberships.  The fee schedule is as follows (all figures
are in US$):


                Academic        Non-academic    Suppl memberships
                --------        ------------    -----------------
Category A       $  540         $   640          $ 50 each

         B          815             915            50 each

         C         1710            1810            40 each


I enclose electronic copy of an institutional membership application
in case that would be of help.

%  Lines for the form itself are placed on the left

%  to keep it out of the way.  In a pinch, one could
%  fill in the form in ascii mode and flush all lines
%  BEGINNING with # (the # is also used in \# below).
%  This file runs under the Plain
%  format, but both the # and the _ have been
%  re-\catcode-d to lend themselves to special functions.

Please attach a corresponding list of individuals whom you wish to
designate as TUG individual members.  Minimally, we require names and
addresses so that TUG publications may be sent directly to these
individuals, but we would also appreciate receiving the supplemental
information regarding phone numbers, email addresses, \TeX{}
interests, and hardware configurations as requested on the TUG
