In my opinion, the report should be more detailed, to be considered as "transparency report". I.e. what exactly was 760 EUR / speaker spent on? What is "misc"? Who were the sponsors? Anyway, move in the right direction :)

Sponsors are listed on the website: http://2014.makerland.org/

Speakers costs includes flights or hotels for speakers who wouldn't be able to attend otherwise.

Misc (Miscellaneous) are all other small costs like payment fees, or accounting, or hosting - small & boring costs like that.

I think there has to be a good balance and if we will go for all details, it'd be just boring for most of the people.

Thanks for the clarification. I was, however, not interested in this specific information, rather giving my opinion about the "transparency" of the report. Some data might be boring, but still important in the matter of transparency.
