Following up on this: Is there any way we can get full details for all
the sponsors? The lump sum each month isn't really useful for figuring
out who paid and who didn't (since we have 5 sponsors with the exact
same amount this year). So even if we do have the reports up to today
we can't do this.

Thanks, Daniel
