I think it may also be helpful to discuss sliding fee scale where 
organizations from stronger economies pay more.

e.g. $200 for small organizations from countries with GDP per capita 
in (PPP US$), 1999, above $15,000/per annum 
<http://www.undp.org/hdr2001/indicator/indic_13_1_1.html>

Recognize that many small non-commercial organizations have little 
money, but $50 for many others is really not a lot. So same with 
others who can't pay, if you can't pay make your case to the Adcom.

One issue, membership fees:

How much?
Can we have a global scale?
Is there time to locally organize so that fees can be set and 
collected locally?
How to deal with transaction costs of pay fees in US$.

Do we need resolutions? I mean is this the right format for leading 
discussion? We don't need resolution just to fill the time available!

We do need to discuss charter revisions, perhaps the meeting is a 
good place to hammer so stuff out?

This would be very helpful.

Thanks,
