The system I was thinking about wouldn't exclude any of the core team or plug-in authors from receiving fees.
I didn't get into the details of it, but plug-in authors who maintained their plug-ins, tutorials, documentation, and metadata would receive part of the fees for their work. An equitable system would have to be worked out, but no one who contributes would have been excluded...

Another concern about a subscription service is that it could very well offend the plugin authors who write the code but don't get part of the subscription fees.
