It's hard to gauge the actual costs. What is an hour spent by a volunteer worth? Counsel fees can be measured and covered, but the IAOC members are spending their own (or their employer's) resources on this. Although a lot of the work is done by volunteers, in this case we're selling their work to others, and we should not sell it cheaply. I support this policy. Yoav
