In the spirit of this thread— Pine's question about project-based accounting[1] made me look for the first time in a while at the Foundation's most recent Annual Plan[2] and the related mid-year check-in[3].
I was surprised and delighted by how much better – how much more readable, easier to understand and more specific and down to earth – this is than past efforts. It's also beautifully formatted and interlinked. The mid-year check-in is a vast improvement on the old-style Q&As. (It also has some good-natured edit summaries that made me smile.) Well done.
