Hello, Richard. 

I got the package of earnings and remains (23 books and 48 
T-shirts) from Jong-min yesterday and made a balance-sheet 
as soon as I saw this email.

I made 100 copies of FSFS book and also 100 pieces of FSFS 
T-shirt to sell at your Nov 18 event. The product quantity 
was based on the online registration number from 
http://kldp.org/node/74749. Approximately, 700 people 
registered in advance before Nov 10.

You proposed above formula for money to FSF and I think that 
is reasonable to me. And I'll apply it not only to books but 
also T-shirts. My costs and others is as follows.

For books:
        S: 15,000 WON (USD 15)
        P:  7,500 WON (USD  7.5) 
        N: 100 

For T-shirts: { formula is modified to N*(S-P)/2 }
        S: 9,000 WON (USD 9)
        P: 6,000 WON (USD 6)
        N: 100

Supposing I sell all books and T-shirts, money to FSF is 
USD 421.87. But because I paid Nov 18 event expenses and my 
credit card payment for FSFS stuff costs, I need some more time 
to sell remains to send the money to FSF. I think about two or 
three months is needed for on-line selling. 

Is it possible to wait for two or three months for me?

BTW, I uploaded Ogg Theora video format of your speech at this
place.
