When did this happen?
I thought Jer set it up when he set up the pay-pal account, I guess not, my bad.
I registered 'The Wine Project' as a 'Doing Business As' name. Basically, this means that I have a legal right to also use that name in Minnesota; that gave me the right to create a bank account with that name.
There's no official corporation around that; it's just me, and that's where the paypal money goes (bwahahahah, you're all fools to trust me <grin>).
Last year, I spent most of the money in that account on travel subsidies. This year, we didn't get as many requests, so we're fairly flush. I need to square a few expenses; like the 100 EUR we promised for the students party fund, so I don't have an exact amount; probably $1200 or so.
We've debated in the past how best to spend that money; I've come to believe that the best use of it is on Wineconf, in whatever ways make sense.
Cheers,
