What is the difference between a PDS member and a GDG
Generation ? Is it only this, that with a generation we can
use +1, 0, -1 etc while with PDS member we can not ?

Thanks Karthik,
And could you help in sorting out whether there is any other
difference between a PDS member and a GDG generation EXCEPT
that we can reference the GDG Generations using +1, 0, -1
etc while with PDS members we can NOT ?
