I think the W3C should seriously consider free membership for
individuals ... charging enormous fees will always ensure that when
times get financially tough that they lose resouces immediately.

Also (the evil Jim) would argue that working on a v2.1 of a spec that
has very few v2.0 implementations is speculative and perhaps a waste
of time and resources.
