Financial Status

Update and latest strategies to keep track of members and payments.
As she is too busy, this is also the official transfer of this role to Luc H, as decided during the last meeting.
Membership Status of people with entry cards
(Rachel, 5 minutes)
People from the Nebuleuse and the WaterDropDNA project (BangBang) want access, but are not paying membership fees.
Luc: I thought La Nébuleuse was paying 2 memberships to have access. WaterDropDNA needs access for what exactly? We never see them on Wednesday night, do we?
Are there any other people that are in this situation?
Should we get them to pay?
This could be another test for Ana's billing method.
