So when you wrote "People are asking how FSFE e.V. can raise almost EUR
650,000 in one year and spend barely EUR 37,000 on producing
merchandise", you wanted to express that our public finance report
should have more than 6 categories? Or did you now start a new topic and
not answer my question? Sorry, but I have a hard time following your
thoughts.

Some of the suggestions you made in your last email might be worth
considering, did you ever consider to make them towards the people
actually in charge of the financial reports?

Best,
