I guess I was hit by the 'don't scroll down syndrome on a web page'.
Pointing me to that reference would then have been a nice answer to my
query (note that only 2009 is available on guidestar).

We do have such documents. I think Barath provided the latest update to
the GNOME board with all the receipts as this year Novell helped us
advancing the money locally. So the GNOME board does have all the
relevant information (I don't, but I have a rough idea or our income,
spending and how much profit we made). I think Pockey also provided a
breakdown report to the board as well.

All the sponsors invoices were made by Rosana and funds transferred
directly to the GNOME foundation. I even offered to help following up
with unpaid invoices at the last report.

So what exactly do you need?
