Expense Submissions

Matthew Cropp PublicSeen by 22

A thread for expenses to be submitted and voted on by the Finance working group.

Literally all I can see is the title of the expense submission and the amount. I cannot see the receipts, nor can I comment (or see other's comments) so it feels like I'm being asked to sign off on stuff with essentially no information about what I'm voting for...which makes the whole act of voting seem pretty pointless, and makes meaningful oversight impossible. Can we do something about this situation?

Agree

Is there a reason we're paying for this month by month, instead of biannually or yearly?

Matt Noyes
Agree

Not sure why I am on this list, but happy to help

Thanks, @Matt Noyes. Can you link the relevant decision? I can't seem to find it.

There's also an optional fee to OC for this kind of payment. Was there any approval to pay that?

Matt Noyes

Yes. We voted to join and pay that monthly rate for three months, then decide if we want to continue.

Nathan Schneider

Okay, so we're contributing directly to their OpenCollective account? And it's true that the 103 GBP fee is *monthly*?
