(That does not only apply to > the financial things) Absolutely, and you are certainly entitled to that opinion. I have already assured everyone that we will not accept donations until we have something official in place with an approval committee to audit all incoming funds and agree on all expenditures. This committee will have full visibility. As soon as we have details of exactly how that will happen, we will post them. I may be a few more weeks as we work through the details.
