Noisebridge Treasurer treasurer at noisebridge.net

I was just trying to point out that there's no reason you'd *have to*
to deduct 8% from the hackerprom donation because it was cash. We
could deduct 5%. Or, if we want to keep things simple, we could just
make 8% the new standard for overhead. Sounds like you'd go with that
option?
