Juuuust to forestall any confusion, by 'subscription model' I mean a fairly broad variety of things. For example, the newspaper I usually read has no paywall, as a matter of principle, but offers 'subscriptions' which support the journalism and give an ad-free web view as a side-benefit. That balances free-to-air with tangible support.
A TUG subscription does the same thing: the core 'product' is and remains free (beer and speech), but there's a channel for tangible support, with TUGBoat as the nominal concrete payoff.
Just in case anyone might misunderstand a remark which I now realise has more than one interpretation.
Best wishes,
Norman
