The thig is this: there are no fixed fees for IPs except for those interested in acquiring VDNs. Thus every one interested in the so-called 'CCN IP Premium Service' (i.e. VDNs +) will be lead to the information, while others will not. It could be linked to the main IP Support page but it might cause more confusion then not as non-VDN IPs would read it and think that it applied to them, etc. The current pathway makes furnishes the information to those who are interested in the service while keeping it out of the way to those who are not. Actually, looking at this more carefully, perhaps we should rename this page to be called 'Member Services' since the first three fees apply to individual memberships, whereas the following two apply to IPs. I've tweaked this accordingly and have added a category called "Basic IP Membership" for which there is no fixed fee. however, IPs are reminded that they donate to the CCN according to their means. This is in keeping with our principal that IP memberships on the CCN are not free; simply that there is no current fixed fee. Perhaps in this context it does make sense to link the fee structure to the IP Support Home Page? Let me know if this structure and information seems clear. Cheers, Chris N.B. I have accordingly re-named the page: http://www.chebucto.ns.ca/Services/IPsupport/member-fees.html _._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._.
