Friends of GNOME October data

[Stormy Peters <stormy gnome org>]

The October data is posted.[1]

We raised $1819 in October, a slight increase from $1720 in September for a total of $25,233 since January 1, 2009 which is awesome! Four times more than we made in 2008!

We lost a couple of subscribers in October. I thanked all of them and asked them why they left. Most didn't answer. One wrote that his personal situation had changed and he needed to make budget cuts. Another responded that he started contributing when he heard we needed help with hackfests but when he heard how much staff was making, he decided to cancel.

I'm still thanking everyone personally. Hopefully when I get CiviCRM configured we can automate the tracking part.
