Good evening to everyone. Here's hoping you're having an excellent new year. In the next day or so, [Peer-Directed Projects Center](http://freenode.net/pdpc.shtml), the IRS 501(c)(03) parent organization of **freenode**, will begin its fundraising campaign for the fiscal year ending 30 June 2006. We're still working on budget estimates for FYE 2006, and we begin the campaign with about $2,440 in donations over and above those required for the current year.
