I've translated it in french so more people can read, it wouldn't be bad to translate this email in the more language we can and spred it on village pump.

Why not making a new issue of Quarto with this letter, the financial report, the draft of the provisional budget for 2007 (http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/What_we_need_the_money_for)... ?

Yeah it would be a good idea, a really good one as we already translated all of those documents ^^
With the Anthere's new years mail, few things are missing, perhaps as a chapter reports.

I love the idea. But...
I wouldn't count on those (at least not all of them) before February, and that's a rather optimistic assumption. ;) Since most of the report form ChapCom uses for annual chapter reports is oh-so-boring (lotsa legal stuff, bank details, executive body members, domains owned... yuck, gives me a headache when I think I have to write one) what I would want to see in Quarto are the three FUN things from those reports: completed projects, current projects and future projects. :)
Those will need some selection and thought since not everything can be released to the public (agreements in the making, etc.).
Please contact ChapCom, me or Delphine with a deadline on that. We'll see what we can do. Maybe we can get a few out, if not all of them are submitted on time.
I already told delphine on irc. Audit has already been summaryzed in french, anthere's letter transleted, and what wa need money for... Few things are missing. I think once we have the chapcom reports and the fundraiser results it should be fast to do :)

I diggued for you the draft annual report. It is here: http://wikimediafoundation.org/wiki/WMF_Annual_Report Only the text is here, but I also uploaded the draft pdf, which contains the images. Some of the images had errors, which need fixing. Some do not, but their interest was questionned. Danny (dwool AT wikimedia.org) should have all these images on his computer hopefully.
We could add the financial statement, the audit letter, the "what we need the money for", my mail probably rewritten, chapter reports when they are done. Probably add some links as well. Hmmm, perhaps oscar text on board retreat with all the links related to the retreat. Hmmm; quite a lot of things.
Let's start with the beginning. Please, help.
