==Board member reports==

===Board===

====Bailey:====

<div><br></div>

:BaileyL: Wants to see the survey results for the GA to check if people responded. Got an email from Italy, and saw that I was nominated for chair and other positions. I am happy to accept the nominations in whatever position. I want to know if you all are ok with that. I am open to all opinions.

====Gregory:====

:Dichter: I did some couple of things - some of them are reflected in todays agenda, so later to those.

beside: I have communicated a couple of times with Bailey and Pat and others to solve some administrative issues. I added the GA to the Wiki, I lack yet the admin right to be able to edit the Sitenotice.

I have registered PPI HQ with Socialware.be, the belgian branch of Techsoup.io - the application is successfully approved today and subsequently I signed up PPI HQ with Google for nonprofits. The application for Google Ad Grants is still outstanding (may take up to five days). Our YT Channel has now the rights to live stream.

I talked to Pirate Parties of Italy, Czechia, Estonia, Latvia and Ukraine.

I had a meeting with David Wagner regarding TT20 and other events.

I asked Bstian about different IT systems - I try to get access to the old password database.

:RayJohansen: I worked with a few Google Grants experts for two months in the US so I have ideas you might wanna hear. If you get us accepted I think it will be the biggest thing economically for PPI since our birth.
:Dichter: We can sell t-shirts and other things to generate income.

====Keith:====

<br>

:keithgoldstein: I wrote to several parties and updated responses from them if any to the spreadsheet, including invoices. Submitted CSOCD statement on homelessness for ECOSOC. Received report on government transparency and request to collaborate with Pirate parties around the world.

====Daniel:====

====Raymond:====

:RayJohansen: Business as usual. Activism and social media plus GA coordination/planning.
:keithgoldstein: It is good to give feedback about those who are running for the board, especially Bailey as she has been nominated for chair.

====Mike:====

<br>

:MichalGill: Visited the Slovak Pirate Party for the 101 anniversary of Czechoslovakia. We moved forward with their PPI application, which should be ready for the GA. I have also contacted various parties about the GA, and we had an interesting meeting with the foreign department of PPCZ about running PPEU and PPI. There is a lot of enthusiasm leading up to the GA. I am looking forward to it.
:MichalGill: - contacting members on fees and GA

- visiting the new Slovak Pirates for 101st anniversary of Czechoslovakia

- enthusiasm

C'mon, Keith! :D

====Etienne:====

===Alternates===

====Cédric:====

<div><br></div>

:Cedric: Still working on Congressus for special capabilities to Congressus especially for Bailey ;) and the GA
:Cedric: By the way, PPFR has finished to vote its service proposal :

- 40€/month to access of the hosting service

- 5€/month for a VM

- 5€/month for a monitoring of a VM

or

- 10€/month for a bunch of services like galette (a member management system), congressus, discourse, discord bots, redmine

==TASKING==

Thank you all.</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"> <Google link not shown>

:keithgoldstein: If you speak with a party or do something, please go in to this system and make sure it is documented. Someone may have made a delegate list somewhere else, then we should put that information here.

==Calling the GA==

===Statute Amendments===

:keithgoldstein: PPIL submitted a statute amendment to increase board size. Are there any other proposals. Proposals are due in 3 days.
:Dichter: There were no statute amendments proposed in 2017, just one in 2018 (similar to current). The statutes have worked for 10 years, so we assume that they are acceptable.

===GA Announcements===

===Nominations===

===New member applications===

:MichalGill: New Slovak Pirates - application finished, not the statutes though. I'll probably just fix it for the moment and send it as it is now - the negotiations with the Interior Ministry take forever.

:Dichter: There is a 1 month indication before that they are interested. But they can finalize the application later.

===Other Motions===

Other motions or agenda items. These do not need to be decided until a week before and can also be presented at the last minute.

===Setting up Discourse or other venue===

<span style="font-size: 10.5pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;">pre-GA information (response to <a href="mailto:marco@marcoconfalonieri.it" title="marco@marcoconfalonieri.it"><span style="color:#666666">Marco Confalonieri</span></a>)</span>

===Affiliation fee invoices===

Posting the invoices online. Alerting all countries to their invoices. We should not receive further requests for invoices. They should all be received or accessible.

===Emails by board to parties===

In addition to the emails to the national parties, we also need to i<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Roboto, RobotoDraft, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; white-space: pre-wrap;">nvite the indivudual supporter members. Let's make sure to update that list, as well as the following list of national parties: </span><a href="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tvbUe1uPlmL9dbLx2__5L3_Kps2ZddYH8Y35tPzO2Ao/edit#gid=2096023865">https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1tvbUe1uPlmL9dbLx2__5L3_Kps2ZddYH8Y35tPzO2Ao/edit#gid=2096023865</a>

===Zoom for the GA===

<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">We have not decided if we should use Zoom on top of Discord but I think</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">that among other things our member sand those nominated should be able</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">to speak with audio AND video. But I dont know really. Lets discuss and</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">decide among us. We need a decision today or there wont be time to prep.</span>

:RayJohansen: Some of us love Zoom. It would be great for people who are nominated, want to speak, to be seen and heard... I have been looking forward to running a GA fully electronically. We haven't decided to use Zoom with Congressus and Discord. We did not have problems with Zoom. Problems in the past had to do with the audio connection in a physical room.
:Dichter: If we use Zoom, we don't need Discord. We also have a solution with Jitsi that we used with the PPEU meeting, and it worked quite well and comparable to Zoom.
:MichalGill: Zoom is in my opinion for the better choice. It would also be good that we have a backup. We also have a Mumble server as a back up.
:BaileyL: I have some worries about announcing that we will use Zoom when we have promoted Discord and many people are expecting us to use that. I just don't want us to appear to be changing things at the last minute.
:Etienne: I don't think it is a good idea to have the GA on another venue, because we have announced to many people that we will be working on Discord and many people are expecting us there.
:Dichter: I am totally supportive for Zoom. I think Discord is a privacy nightmare. I don't really care about that. I don't think anyone will be upset about a change of venue. I looked at the announcement that we made. It does not state that we will use Discord. I don't think there is any argument having it on Zoom.

:keithgoldstein: Mike votes for Both.
:keithgoldstein: We voted 5 for both. 2 for Discord. So our decision is that we will use both tools.
:Cedric: I think this will be a technical mess. We need to choose one audio channel.
:Dichter: We will need to update RoP and other things, but let's move on for now.

===Zoom GA Pirate Beer===

<span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">I propose we meet and drink beer in Zoom on Friday December 6th at 8 pm</span><br style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span style="color: rgb(34, 34, 34); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">CET.
