At the moment we have: ~10.000 SEK in the main bank account ~49.000 SEK coming in from PayPal to main bank account ~18.000 EUR in the secondary bank accounts 1 EUR is approx. 8.5-9.0 SEK the money received from Payson (Swedish PayPal equiv) + the money received from at-the-door-fees has been inserted into the above numbers. The amount may change depending on whether I find more old invoices waiting to be paid or not (about a week ago I had to pay a big invoice of 25.000 SEK dating back to conference for 2005 ). That said, I think all the big invoices are paid and there should be very few, if any, small invoices for 2006 to be paid. I expect the numbers above to be fairly static from now on, or even increase a bit: I stil have to verify that all sponsors have paid their invoices.
