I think $25 a year would be fair. I have a subscription to 
apps.kde.com, and that's $35 a year, it gives me precompiled binaries 
for my chosen distro, very cool. It would be a good fundraiser for 
KLUG, and would make BSWare available worldwide (world domination?)

It would probably be monthly-ish (which is about whenever I feel like 
it, or the need arizes)

Yeah, i played with GNOME 1.4 a little while ago, and it was fun, but 
still prefer my KDE 3. At least RedHat is including KDE now. I haven't 
gotten much of a chance to play with GNOME 2, or Ximian GNOME (what's 
the real difference?)
