The page on meta says there is a meeting this evening, but there
doesn't seem to be an agenda yet, is that meeting happening? If so,
could I add something to the agenda? I'm curious as to how the
accounts are currently being managed (I know no receipts or payments
have been processed yet, but they will be soon so a system needs to be
in place). Is the plan to just have a simple spreadsheet or is some
proper accounting software being used? I suggest the board consider
using proper software from the start since it will almost certainly be
required once we get to a decent size and it will be easier to
implement it now than transferring everything across at a later date.
There are FOSS options available, although I don't know if anything
are any good. Something which includes features for UK charities would
be good, since you could get it to do all the complicated gift aid
stuff (I'm assuming such software exists, there are plenty of
charities that could use it).
