I agree with Rafael that managing money isn't an easy task, but it's necessary. I think we all agree on that a LoCo Team isn't for profit, but that doesn't mean that a LoCo Team (specially a large and active one) can be run without funds. We have at least 2 or 3 events per month and it's impossible to organize them without money. So far we have been funding our activities from our pockets, and we will probably do so in the near future. As i see it, the problem is what to do when we manage to get large funds from local corporations (or even government agencies). Are we going to say "No, thanks!"?? A pretty good solution is what the ubuntu-ve LoCo Team has been doing; not accept any money but instead let the sponsors pay for the expenses directly to the providers.
