I think the board should do a budget/financial meeting
soon. The last one
was done a trimester ago, so it is high time.
Considering how difficult it has been to get the board together for a
meeting in the last month, I strongly suggest we have this as part of
the meeting planned for Monday 16th May rather than trying to find a
suitable point in Jimbo's schedule for two meetings.
Question for Danny and for those taking care of grants
and prizes...
I think we have no grants planned right now (except for wikimania). Am I
correct that we should not expect any income in the near future from that
direction ?
Also, are there any grants out there that people think we _should_ be
applying for which we might not be aware of yet?
Also, depending on what is left, we must think of the
time when the next
fundraising will be reasonable to do. I suspect it is a bad idea to do it in
summer... so, in short, do we need to plan something in june, or will we be
able to last till september ?
I'd prefer June since that is still within the 2nd quarter which is
when the next fundraising drive was expected.
...so, either the french
association quickly has cash to pay for such expenses, or the foundation
should have a credit card in europe to take care of such matters... opinion ?
Is there any reason we don't have a credit card on the Belgian account?
