*57 mails to define the effort, for me be it voluntary/paid, effort for a good cause is priceless, and the precious time everyone wasted could have been utilized (not to be considered as a free gyan!) for something constructive rather than this defensing act which will result just nothing, the only thing I enjoyed is Achal's assessment!
*The subject says "Community monthly report"; it's not a place to define who has taken the initiative and what is the exact percentage of support foundation/chapter has provided to the community, it's rather a brief note of what has happened in the community engagement activities, foundation/chapter obviously has supported it. But, it's important to access the outcome than to measure how much support in which way was provided by foundation/chapter.
