Meanwhile, the Open Software Foundation is attempting to boost its numbers by introducing a new membership programme and pricing structure. Membership fees will now be based on the revenues or funding of the organisation seeking or renewing membership. Multi-year membership is another cheaper option. As part of the new package, the Foundation is also offering discounts on some educational and consulting services as well as a pre-paid on-site training seminar. Prices range from $5,000 per year for members with annual turnover of less than $10m to $25,000 for those with revenues of $100m or more. For three year membership, organisations pay between $13,250 to $66,250 respectively.
