''Members of the board shall give a short summary (one minute at maximum) of what happened since the last board meeting or their last report. If something needs more attention, it should be discussed in separate points.''

* Gregory: I has attended the preparotary meeting of PP-EU in Barcelona - had a conversation with Rok Andre about the api for looking up the information on pirate parties that could be used to include in various other websites. Also we got the PPI GA RoP improved to include various points that are helping to conduct the meeting (including a paragraph on remote delegates). Later I was visiting Aktau in Kazakhstan as an observer to a court proceeding over leaders of opposition. Besides that I had conversations with potential sponsors for PPI servers, have found a designer that would like to help on the CI project (directed him to contact Jelena), and was busy to bring in support people to help to solve the recent instabilities of the PPI webservers.
* Lola: Agenda, Redmine, e-mails; Finished working on PP-Leaders list update, just got 2 new articles published: http://www.thepostinternazionale.it/2012/09/anche-i-pirati-spaventano-putin/
http://www.cafebabel.it/article/41909/pirati-politica-elezioni-europee-2014.html
* Travis: not present.
* Denis: I sent the ad-hoc observer state requests to WIPO. And I was Gregory's dead man's switch ;).
* Ed: At Gregory's request I got the UK's server guy on the case to do some re-configuration of the PPI server to try and stop it from falling over. PPUK is on the final push for our (their? :) ) up-coming conference.
* Nuno: I had some hectic work weeks on my job so the only thing I could do with my scarce spare time was legal work on PP-PT in order for it to become a formal association.
* Jelena: Started to work with the slovenian designer. Managed social media accounts.

From the last meeting: Ed: budget plan for the current year has been reviewed (cca 20.000 EUR); PPI events in the past were self sustainable and there is also large portion we can use for PPI HQ office intern (6.000 EUR per year). To ask PP DE to transfer the funds to the account in PPI (Belgian AISBL account), to prepare the letter for support and send it out.

Ed (recieved via mail): The text of this was written (complete with updated Bank details) - it has not been sent out because, frankly, it fell off my list of things to do. Mea culpa.

==== 3.2.17 - Call for hosts PPI GA ====

Redmine task #195, due date: 11/09/2012

From Redmine: https://ppi.piratenpad.de/call-for-offers-conferences

Ed (recieved via mail): I have spent some time on the body of the text, if you need any more help with it please ping me.

Gregory: almost finished (text finished , need to prepare the wiki page and publish.

Motion: Should parts of our next GA be conducted in the Open Space Conference format?
Vote in favor: Gregory, Lola, Jelena
Vote abstain: Nuno, Denis

Gregory: for now i will prepare the requirements for the hosts to include the needs of Open Space Conference. As soon as the text is finalized, it will be presented to the board to vote on.

Denis: It's important to see that discussion is an important part of voting so there must be the possibility to discuss points before voting on them. I'm not sure whether it is a good idea to do it with open spaces, so I abstain. If we do it that way this must be communicated clearly from the beginning.

Nuno: I also agree with Denis that discussion is an important part of voting, so none of the discussion/voting phases can overlap with each other, only with discussions on issues that don't involve voting. Doing otherwise would force multiple delegates to be sent for each country stressing the resources of those that can't send more than one, if any at all.

REDMINE: +2 weeks
