> Why does it take the Mozilla Foundation more than year to issue its financial statements from 2007? After all, it is almost 2009.

Maybe their finance software is written in XUL.

According to the comments, the IRS grants automatic extensions to October 15th (for non-profits). It is (again, according to some commenter) normal for a non-profit to issue financial statements this late in the following year.

Do keep in mind I was unable to vet this reason within a couple minutes of searching.

Not Hacker News... Also, it's possible they asked for an extension to file their taxes in the fall instead of March.
