Comment (by phobos):

 Thanks for the thoughts. Here are my thoughts:

 1. Sure, I'll work on it.

 2 and 3, we generally cannot disclose current contracts, so giving away
 information like "-present" isn't possible. We also have had contracts in
 the past who forbid us from listing them as a sponsor to avoid their name
 showing up in Internet search results tied to Tor. Go figure.

 We can't publish anything before the audit is completed each year and the
 990/PC filed. It takes 8-10 months to do the audit at the current rate.

 What we could do is scrap the sponsors page altogether and merge it with
 the financial docs page, and then create a basic set of demographics about
 tor funding, based on 990/PC filings.
