Steve, 

It's not the Board who said you haven't answered questions. It's ME. I asked:

 What personal issues/personal dues were you referring to as an excuse to not issuing the per diem?

Isaac also asked:

Why are you claiming that the per diem was not budgeted for, yet at the start up grant, there's a whole $1000 budgeted for travel? http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Grants:WM_KE/Start-up

One more thing:

Since you adamantly refused to issue me your bank statement, I need proof that the outstanding balance of Wikimedia Kenya's money is in your account. You can go to the bank and they can print you a letter saying that "Steve's statement of account is in excess of X shillings" (X being the base amount remaining from Wikimedia Kenya's money.) So if you get this official letter from the bank confirming that Wikimedia Kenya's money is in your account, there would be no reason to ask for a bank statement.

I wonder what questions am not answering on the shared Gdoc with the Board. Probably you should look at the comments in cells that had question marks. If am not wrong, I have answered all of them.

Thank you
.Stephen.

Guys,

I will attend the meeting by skype. Means I have to wake up really early, but that is alright. There is a need to separate any current state with finances and the board.

I suggest we just meet and ask all the questions we have then. I propose we don't discuss the matter further since nobody seems to be addressing the financial questions that are being posed.
Meanwhile Steve can prepare himself by getting all the documents requested, hopefully he can make some copies of the statements so that we can evaluate them on Saturday. Even better if he can send the statements to our inbox( those who requested) so that we can have questions ready when we meet.
see you then

Oscar,

Personally, I don't need a meeting to get hold of the financial statements or "digest" them. Financial statements and reports can be emailed to members and they can read them at the (dis)comfort of their homes. I need a meeting to get justifications, answers, and accountability -- for I have failed to get answers and accountability via email.

If this upcoming meeting wouldn't be a Q&A, then count me out.

Thanks,

Abbas.
