	*Justification: Over the years, we had some very bad luck in electing an active Court of Arbitration. This body is the only one that can expel member parties from the PPI. Due to inactivity or even non-existence, we now have quite a few of those. The current and previous boards did their best to supply the CoA with data on the parties in question; sadly, the CoA failed to act.		*Justification: Over the years, we had some very bad luck in electing an active Court of Arbitration.

	*Justification: Prior collaboration with Aragon and a working group made some progress towards establishing a DAO that would allow Pirates to vote with blockchain. However, several members expressed concern with the use of an Ethereum-based DAO that would be difficult (expensive) to modify, as well as skepticism about whether all of the parties would use the system. After attempts to revise the DAO to be more open or utilize another blockchain such as Polygon, our partners at Aragon appear to have lost interest; And rightfully so, as we need to discuss further how we can utilize blockchain and crypto in general to support our members and our activism projects.		*Justification: Prior collaboration with Aragon and a working group made some progress towards establishing a DAO that would allow Pirates to vote with blockchain.

	*~~AOB:~~ At the GA, we would like to hear from our members about whether we are still interested in developing a DAO and/or using blockchain tools. Should this be an open system for the public or a closed system for member parties? How can we become innovative with Web 3.0?		*At the GA, we would like to hear from our members about whether we are still interested in developing a DAO and/or using blockchain tools.
