Dear community,
following the transparency principle in our statutes, TDF would like to make its preliminary 2014 budget public. It's preliminary, as we are working closely with an accountant to publish a formal 2014 annual financial report. The accountant's ledger, however, will - for tax reasons - be different from our internal planning. We try to assign sums to projects and budget holders, whereas the accountant has not only slightly more detail (e.g. by breaking down money conversion and credit card processing fees), but sometimes also a different attribution.
The formal 2014 financial report we file is expected for March or April, and will then be published.
For LibreOffice funds spent by SPI, we will provide a list soon as well.
In addition, after having processed each month with the accountant, we will make their ledger public. Right now, we are working on translating and purging confidential data, and expect the January ledger to be available around end-February.
