[LGM] finances

[Frank Trampe]

I have a few to add.

Aside from VAT, would K8 take the necessary steps to ensure that the tax
treatment of the reimbursements (particularly across national boundaries)
doesn't result in withholdings on the reimbursements when they are
expensible by recipients? Is there a way to avoid imputing taxable income
to people lacking a business rationale for their attendance at the
conference?

Does K8 support this year's event such that some portion of the 15% fee
might actually go towards it? In that case, it might not be as big a loss
as it seems.
