Currently have 56 paying members so quorum is now 14.

Here is the financial summary spreadsheet for December 2011, which also has the totals for all of 2011: File:HacDC Financials 2011 Final.pdf

We had a big surplus in December due to the Church crediting us $2191 for Martin's installation of the intercom system. Even without that we would have been ~$400 ahead due to people's additional donations and the tip jar. With 54 paying members we are close to meeting expenses on dues alone. We had 5 non-paying members however - two are dropping.

Total revenue for 2011 was ~$34,000. We finished 2011 with $3400 more in the bank than 2010 (most from last month). Even if we spend $1000 as we discussed last month, that gives us about 3 months operating expenses on reserve, which is nice.

Audit committee has access to financial files in Google Docs, expect a report from them soon.

I filed our change of registered agent form with DC and tax form 990-N with the IRS.

I am intending to send people who donated cash to HacDC (beyond dues) a letter with the total, for tax purposes. 24 members + 19 one-time donors will take a little while - I hope emailed PDF file is okay. I also owe some merchandise donation letters - we got more laser stuff, and some PCs from Bill Babson.

Alberto

Spoke with Vincent Rossi of the Smithsonian about the mill and other stuff. They want to get us the dongle for DeskProto. They are currently 3D scanning the gunboat, Philadelphia, at the American History museum, and would appreciate someone stopping by to pick it up, perhaps as early as tomorrow. Anyone in the Mall area?

Attribution for the mill when mentioned in HacDC publications should read: A personal gift from Vincent Rossi and Adam Metalo, who work at the Smithsonian Institution's 3D Digitization lab. https://www.facebook.com/3d.si.edu"
