I'm sure but i think this is not possible under the french law. I think there
is no alternative to the rule "1 member = 1 vote".

I think it is dangerous when the number of votes depends on the money you
give. Actually what happens if a company comes, pays the same amount that
PostgreSQLFr and then ask for the same number of voices ?

Even if we can write new rules in the statutes to avoid this kind of
situation, that's totally out of the KISS philosophy.
