I'll speak to Bruce and see if he can clarify that -- whether "work"
applied to non-commercial members' presentations.

Come on, let's not get silly. Of course it has to do with incorporation
and for-profit versus non-profit.

What I have yet to see from GTALUG is:

1) Who does it want as members?

2) What does it plan to do for them (outside of organization and
structure upon what already exists)?

It's simply amazing that when "everybody agreed that GTALUG is ideal
umbrella to be under", "everybody" did not have amongst them one person
who considered such consequences.
