September 30 is the end of the fiscal year for us! So we're in the new
period, even though are books aren't quite closed yet for the year (that's
quite typical, and the reason that the IRS doesn't require us to report to
them for 6 months after the year is over. Still, as you say we can do a
better job for our community than that! (or than we've done in the past)

good thinking! And we've got some pictures from those I think too. Also,
it would be great to feature hackfests a bit more this time, really
talking about some of the tasks accomplished rather than just including
stats. Hopefully we can ask folks if they would turn their blogposts into
appropriate articles for that.

We should also include a bit on Marina as winner of the pants award, and
we can do the usual short summaries from the annual report (or we can just
ask people to turn their presentations from GUADEC into something suitable
for the annual report. The bugsquad report in particular would look great
with the graphics that Andre put together.

I'm so glad we're picking this up now. Thanks Emily and Juanjo!
