Hi all,
This is just a quick email to let you know that I am /still/ processing Wikimania-related expenses for volunteers and staff. It's a long process with lots of new people I don't have details for - and I have a pile several inches thick! On top of that, I have to help produce the Q2 financial figures, the Q2 FDC report, and the minutes for several meetings.
As such, I have had to prioritise my work so that volunteer expenses get top priority, and I have had to prioritise certain volunteers who need the money quickly. Some of you may know that the target for WMUK is to get expenses paid within seven days (as long as there are no concerns) - I'm rapidly approaching, and in some cases, passing that target. Unfortunately this is not something that can be easily delegated to others because it's a financial process that needs proper checks.
This has also meant that some of my other work - such as minuting - falls behind a bit. If you need me to prioritise something specifically, please send me an email reminding me and I will do what I can to expedite it.
In the meantime, please bear with me!
