one time in the history of the OSMF a commitment was made by
the <br>
board to provide the membership with regular (iirc at the time
it was <br>
quarterly) financials. On and off this was done over the
years, but it <br>
currently has lapsed for a long time. I'm the first person to
agree that <br>
doing this is a lot of work with little gain, but as a matter
of <br>
principle I would still think that this should be provided.<br>
<br>
Browsing the Finance Committee minutes for this year it seems
that a lot <br>
of progress has been made, and that there are actually
reconciled <br>
monthly financials available internally and to corporate
members, just <br>
not to the wider membership. That is, lets say, not a good
look. I would <br>
suggest that these be made available, if necessary in redacted
form, to <br>
all members.<br>

PS: the minutes of the FC abruptly stop after June, I assume
that is <br>
just an oversight?<br>
