Jimmy will talk to Daniel Mayer about access to the Foundation's bank account.

Speaking of financial matters generally, I believe there was some preliminary discussion about the next fundraising cycle recently. While it might not yet be time to kick that into gear, there is still the matter of having direct credit-card payment processing set up. As of the last fundraiser, I understood that was going to happen in relatively short order, but so far I see no sign of it as a donation option. Could we get an update on that?

Four additional points related to fundraising...

1) Since Mav did not have the financial reports yet, we have not been able to define how much we had left. This should be fixed by monday hopefully.

2) Since we got no clearly defined feedback from the developers about what to purchase and when, we could not discuss technical needs. We still need some feedback on the topic. Matters are complicated by the on-going setting up of hosting and donation deals.

3) The french organisation now have a valid bank account

4) I suggest we find some new and original fundraising methods. A recent fundraising was very efficient to raise 28000 dollars on a goal of 50000. Unfortunately, the paypal account appear to have been blocked before the account was blocked. Still.... I guess it shows people have money :-) See http://www.savetoby.com/
