[yocto-ab] Membership vs sponsorship

[Hudson, Sean]

Phil,

  After reading your response, I realize that I wasn't completely clear.  The Linux Foundation does have members: corporate and individual.  However, at their conference events, there are "sponsors" who provide funding and receive recognition, e.g. Platinum, Gold, and Silver.  So, more accurately, I was suggesting that Yocto emulate the sponsorship of LF events by changing the naming.

Regards,
     Sean
