[Board] FOSS4G-Europe financial wrap-up

Tue Nov 25 14:22:54 PST 2014

Peter, what I have to do?
Send you the invoice?
If yes, I'll do in next days. But I have not understood what is the answer from the Board :-)

Hi all,

just to reiterate on request of our administration:
the invoice must be received
    *before December*
after that, books will be closed by university administration and the project
will get closed by the end of the year.

In plain words: the money will be lost for FOSS4G-Europe.
