Because Rachel insisted that there be a public accounting (very
reasonably I think).  It didn't occur to me to CC treasurer, I always
read -discuss so shouldn't everybody?  I'll try to be more careful about
that in the future.

Apparently I shouldn't do accounting while feverish; I dropped a month.

Thanks.

After some fundraising tonight, and including hackerprom, and (as you
point out incorrectly) deducting the 8% from hackerprom, we're at

Month              Total
-----              -----
August 2011        460.00
September 2011     890.00
October 2011      1059.50
November 2011      538.00
December 2011      230.00

Total: 3177.50 (net 3082.68, 2.98% fees)
net of 8% to Noisebridge, total is 2923.30
Spent 2361.00 on servers leaving 562.30 in the bank

(before this week's bill, that is).
