You signed your agreement on June 30; Karen Sandler counter-signed on July 7, after which I routed the agreement to Accounting for processing. Rest assured that your initial payment is in the queue. <br> <br> It's my understanding that it is industry standard for organizations and businesses to operate on a"NET-30" basis, i.e., an entity is expected to issue payment within 30 days from the date of an agreement and/or receipt of an invoice. We at Conservancy strive to be quicker than that when bandwidth allows, but given that Bradley (who operates as our part-time bookkeeper) has to provide support multiple member projects, we tend to operate within the industry standard. <br> <br> Best, <br> -Tony<span class="ecxHOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br> <pre>-- Tony Sebro, General Counsel, Software Freedom Conservancy <a target="_blank">+1-212-461-3245 x11</a> <a href="mailto:tony@sfconservancy.org" target="_blank">tony@sfconservancy.org</a> <a href="http://www.sfconservancy.org" target="_blank">www.sfconservancy.org<br clear="all"></a> </pre></font></span></div></div><font color="#888888"> </font></div> <br>_______________________________________________ IAEP -- It's An Education Project (not a laptop project!)
