I'll leave it to Tango and Andrew to provide the full story, but in a nutshell: due to
the complexities of our accounts (and hence the time demands they place on our Treasurer),
we're rather late in having the first set of them checked over by an accountant.
They're currently with the accountants, though, and we'll be able to file them
soon. Being listed as 'proposal to strike off' is an automatic thing as we
haven't previously filed accounts, but there's a long time (6 months) before
there's a risk of that actually happening, and this will definitely be sorted out in
short order.
This is essentially a symptom of us having too much to do and not enough time to do it,
I'm afraid...

I saw this post at the village pump suggesting
wikimediauk's accounts
are seriously late and this presents issues:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:VP/M#Wiki_UK_Ltd_to_be_struck_off.3F
The company in question is wikimedia UK (the Company No. 06741827 is
consistent with that given in past emails)
According to companies house the accounts were due 05/08/2010 and the
company's status was listed as Active - Proposal to Strike off.
Whats going on?
