Hi Ruth,<br>
<br>
As of now, there are no outreach donations reflected in the ledger
because the first donation arrived in June, which is after the
problem with the import script occurred.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>

<div>As far as donations go on the income side of it, based on
what I saw, they were not defined as "outreach donations" but
simply as "donations." Are there two different categories:
donations to the project and donations for outreach? If so,
how is that reflected in the accounting?</div>

</span> Are you asking here about the 10% administrative
fee that the Conservancy receives? If so, I wouldn't use
the term 'donations' but refer to it as an administrative
fee. Or are you talking about donations to the Evergreen
project?<br>
<br>
Also, related to donations, I just want to report back to
the EOB that I heard back from the Conservancy regarding
Outreach donations. There was an issue with the import
script they use with PayPal, which is why we aren't seeing
any donations from June reflected in the ledger. Bradley
Kuhn from the Conservancy said he plans to address the
issue with the import script so that the donations can be
added to the ledger.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">As a new member of the
Evergreen Oversight Board, I am seeking
clarification on the accounting for the
project. After a reviewing the financials
before and during the most recent EOB meeting,
some questions arose in my mind. My first
question relates to how donations to the
Conservancy are accounted. There is no
visible line item that indicates this amount.
My other question relates to what seem to be
miscellaneous expenses/incomes not having
their own line item(s) in the ledger. While
the numbers do seem to work out by assuming
miscellaneous expense/income, the actual
financials, without that assumption, do not
add up. So, I guess my questions both add up
to transparency of the accounting for the
Evergreen project. Right now, at least from
my perspective, there is somewhat of a “black
box” right in the middle of it and an
assumption that “it just works.” I’m hopeful
that you can demystify what’s happening in the
black box."</p>
