Finance

Simon Michael operates the "plaintextaccounting" organisation (together with contributors and moderators), providing plaintextaccounting.org and forum.plaintextaccounting.org, managed matrix rooms/space and IRC channel, support, outreach etc. SM also acts as CFO and fiscal host. For more background, see PTA forum news, 2024-03-18 and A trial of Discourse for Plain Text Accounting discussions.
