Looping back on the discussion of membership types:

- I can’t think of any reason why we would ever want to distinguish between the types of membership other than ‘is member’ and ‘is not member’ or ‘member’ and ‘fellow’.
- I’d be happy to get rid of the membership types (1.1 to 1.3) and just have it all under the title of ‘Becoming a member’ if this helps to simplify things, and makes it easier to understand that one isn’t better than the other.

@pierre_a would that bring this section to a place where you’d be happier with this part of the proposal?
