Fedora EMEA e.V. is a non-profit organization based in Germany. It was
founded in February of 2008 by a group of Fedora Ambassadors.
In *my* opinion, the main purpose of the organization is to serve as a
tool for Red Hat (or possibly other companies someday) to sponsor the
activities of the Fedora Project in EMEA.
===
Much like the Fedora Project itself, which believes in financial
transparency (
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Accounting), Fedora EMEA
e.V. adopts the same principals.
As the treasurer, I want to bring everyone's attention to the final
summary of Fedora EMEA e.V.'s 2008 expenses. It shows the
organizations's sources of revenue as well as expenses in the calendar
year.

I would also like to publicly thank Jeroen van Meeuwen for his
OpenOffice.org spreadsheet hacking skills which added a very impressive
layer of automated calculations to our finances.
