There’s a ledger for the Guix Europe non-profit¹, which is a separate
entity, but most of the transactions on the funds held at the FSF have
been made via Guix Europe.  Another use of the FSF fund has been the
Outreachy internship (that predates the recent donation by Handshake and
the change on the spending committee.)  I think it’s now time to add a
new ledger to write this down.  Tobias, Ricardo?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
