I’m not done yet, but a quicky:

- We have $19,604.89 in the bank
- Still need to pay $17,435.38 for WOWODC 2014
- Shopify and FreshBooks for the remaining year: $348.52
- iWeb (hosting provider) bill (June 30th): ~ $900
- Sale taxes to pay back to governments: $167
- MasterCard payment (I pay the iWeb, FreshBooks and Shopify bills on my MC): 
$596 (this is excluding the amount of future months)

So a « profit » of... $157.99. And we will need someone to prepare the income 
taxes report, which will probably cost ~ $350, which mean we will be $150 in 
the red.

As for the server, we need:

- At least 6 GB of RAM.
- At least 250 GB of disk space, in RAID 1 (I wouldn’t never run a server 
without RAID-1, 5 or 10). We have two 500 GB right now.
- 500 GB of bandwidth per month (those podcasts…). The current server have a 
limit of 20 TB per month.
- Linux if possible (I really don’t understand why people deploy on OS X).
- 100 Mbps port.

We can keep iWeb and switch to a new server while saving $350 on the next bill.
