Sources
Every figure this site publishes about IFA itself, with its source and the date it was true. This page exists because we committed to never publishing a number we can't back. If a figure about IFA appears anywhere on this site and not here, that is a bug: report it.

Claims that are opinions
The manifesto is a statement of values, labelled as such. Statements on this site about what typically happens to founder organisations (capture, silent decay) summarise our published research; when the research section of this site goes live, each such claim will link to its evidence. Until then they should be read as informed opinion.
