Finance

Simon Michael operates the "plaintextaccounting" organisation (together with contributors and moderators), providing plaintextaccounting.org and forum.plaintextaccounting.org, managed matrix rooms/space and IRC channel, support, outreach etc. Simon also acts as CFO and fiscal host. For more background, see PTA forum news, 2024-03-18 and A trial of Discourse for Plain Text Accounting discussions.

I want this organisation to be solvent and self-sustaining, so if you find this work useful, and you are in a position to help financially, your support is much appreciated!

To help cover project costs like hosting:
Any surplus will be used as judged best by the CFO, eg to reimburse costs, or to fund PTA-related work.

To support Simon:

(I won't know this is for PTA work - feel free to tell me)

To support other PTA maintainers/moderators:
Contact them. As yet they don't have much to do.

Fees: See the fee info at hledger.org.
