Just joined. I should have done so years ago.

Incidentally, I was concerned because when I hopped over via Safari, I saw no sign that the form was encrypted (and wrote the webmaster to that effect). In Safari, neither the lock nor the https:// prefix showed up in the url. However, in Chrome, the https:// did appear (but no lock), and I thought that good enough.

Thanks, Herb, for applying the necessary noodge.

>>> MacTeX (which installs TeX Live as its TeX distribution) as well as other version of TeX Live for other systems (e.g., UNIX, multiple Linux distributions and Windows) are all created by volunteers and distributed free of charge. The complete job is done under the umbrella of the TeX Users Group which also publishes a journal (TUGboat) and helps with CTAN and other projects. These are all supported by membership fees (paper and DVDs aren't free and there needs to be an office manager to keep track of everything all the volunteers do as well as support CTAN and updates (via tlmgr or TeX Live Manager on the Mac).

There is no need for a forced membership, MacTeX will continue to be free into the future, but consider supporting TUG.
