Notes: (a) In March of 2022, there was a major hardware and software upgrade, and we paid for two servers through May. The old server cost $74.95/mo, and the newer one $99/mo. In March and April, there were charges for a domain name for the old server and the purchase of software for technical staff. This major upgrade was generously supported by free technical work by Sergei Chekanov. (b) Via a billing error, we were overcharged for about six months of server costs during 2022. This credit will be used in 2023 to pay for the first several months of server costs. (c) Expenses in 2022 included, besides the server, payments for programmers to assist with automating backups and perform a version upgrade.

We would appreciate it if our members could make regular donations, starting with as little as $5 per month, as shown just below:

20 members pledging $5 per month ($60/year) would be enough to keep the servers running for a year, or

15 members pledging $6.77 per month ($81/year) would be enough to keep the servers running for a year, or

10 members pledging $10 per month (100/year) would be enough to keep the servers running for a year
