I think clarification is required here: the Guix project receives
donations, including a single very large donation.  Most of these
donations were received because of Guix's participation in an FSF
program (an agreement for the FSF to handle donations and to send annual
fundraiser emails drafted by us, in exchange for a cut), so the FSF
currently holds these funds for us.  When we want to use these funds we
send them invoices and get reimbursed --- this is our money, not theirs.

The statement "the FSF pays our bills" could be understood as the FSF
actively sponsoring the project.  This is not true.  The only direct
sponsorship from the FSF is in the form of hosting Savannah, debbugs,
and the mailing list.
