Opening Speech by hosts

11:30 - voting on approval of the agenda

11:45 - reports starting

Board Report

Discussion of the Think Twice Conference, Pirate Security Conference, IT consolidation, ECOSOC activities, social media activities, 2.5 million viewers of our outreach, 50-70 messages are broadcast on a daily basis, increase in volunteers as far as NY, use of Discourse and other tech advances, need for support from our members to keep PPI running.

Treasurer Report

Thanks to specific countries that helped out with conferences, but that needs to be changed in the future. We have an outstanding debt for TT2 that we are still repaying. We have server costs that are being deferred, and these costs will continue next year. A budget has been prepared for 2019. Our financial basis at the moment is that we have approximately 1000 euros and 500 euros in Paypal. So, we do not have a strong level of finances at the moment, and we hope to be better funded in the future. The UN work as well will require further funding.
Question from PPCZ about the plan for the budget for the next year. How PPI spends the money, whether it is effective, whether it should be discussed further, and how to move on? They would like to see a report on how funds are used. Will there be opportunities to sponsor ECOSOC visits and other plans?
Question: If PPI was granted 1000 euros, how would PPI use that money? There is debt, projects, and our costs for running the organization.

Lay Auditor Report

Lay Auditors report that the account as of Aug. there are 1147.69 CHF, according to the WIKI. 1140.69 is the balance at present. The Kraken has no funds. The Drexia account was closed. There is a slight discrepency between the statements, but this may be due to the discrepancy. Paypal 538 euros as far as Wiki, confirmed individual transactions. Cashbox discrepancy, which may be due to Euro and CHF, there is no statement. Advise to clean up the Wiki page so that it only shows the current statements.
Question: Will the reports be posted to the WkiThe report will be posted to the Wiki? Yes, all of the reports will be included in the Wiki, and the reports are summarized in these minutes.

Court of Arbitration Report

As our predecessors said :

"The Court of Arbitration had been very lazy. No cases, no meetings no nothing. But we are still alive, hopefully. My suggestion is that you would please respect this situation, because this is a good working atmospehre for the future."

Report of the Tech Team

Report by Bastian. Tech team was founded in the past year. There was a need to build a new server, which was successful. There were complications. We have an aim to give support to every party and every organization. Service was continuous, without a break between transition. The Wiki was reorganized. There is now no spam and no spam users on the Wiki. Etherpad lite has been developed for easy use, and teams for difficult use. Redmine was repaired. The database was recovered. If you have questions, there is an email address where you can contact the tech team: support@pp-international.net
Special thanks to Bastian for supporting us.


Keynote Speech by Naom Colvin

Aaron's Law and Other Unfinished Business
Monopoly companies, such as FB, are scared of being broken up. Pressure though is also coming from governments, who are trying to implace limitations on speech. These are limitations that governments do not want to place themselves, but which they try to get companies to do for them. In the UK, there was a petition to ban FB groups. It is dark time, which can depress us. Aaron Swartz, Lauri Love are displayed as examples. There is an issue of the accused being forced into plea bargains. Ruling of Lauri Love stated that the US could not be trusted. There is an unaccountable and mysterious process of extradition. In the case of Lauri, all of the newspapers came out in support of him. Gary McKinnon also faced a similar ordeal of extradition. The precedent of Lauri has been applied for further cases, hence influencing future extradition cases. Pirates and other activists are to thank for assisting. Aaron's law remains unfinished business. The law proposed two changes to the computer fraud act, such as there should be limits to prosecutors and how people are prosecuted. However, Aaron's law got stuck in the US Congress. This is a problem for everyone. International Cyber Crime Convention mirrors the computer fraud and abuse act. About 20 countries have signed up to the convention so far. We should not give up hope, even though Aaron's law is not going anywhere. There is a problem for security research, when someone is trying to do the right thing and gets in trouble for it. The ban on unauthorized access is also a problem for journalism, as journalists can be accused of computer crime law violations. The case of Kemi Badenoch is discussed as a hypocrisy, as a hacker was not punished because she was a conservative MP in the UK. They call this program Prevent, which is shared by the National Crime Agency.

Too many people are being accused under the law, or could be accused under the law, and hence the law should be changed. In the Netherlands they have distinguished between those who are prosecuted based on whether there was some malicious intent. There are several bills that are moving forward in the US and elsewhere about the boundaries of cybersecurity. The revisions are either to change the law or to carve out exceptions to the law. The European Commission is working on whistleblower protections. Germany lacks protections, and there is a need for a wide law to protect whistleblowers. The text surprised people by the amount that it was extensive. There is a broad definition of who gets to claim to be a whistleblower, which is very comprehensive. This may become more contraversial next year when the European Council examines it. If you want to help, contact @auerfeld . naomi@auerfeld.com


==Speech by Marketa Gregorova - Success in Czechia Resume after Lunch 15.15 Pirate Party in Czech Republic was established, based on the Swedish model, in 2009. They steadily gained traction until 2017 with 22 out of 200 seats in the pariament. A stable foundation among students helped in ther growth. One of the main challeges they faced was to get people to know they even exist. Also they were perceived as a single issue party. To break through that they focused on finance also. their core claim; ' let us at them!' [let us at the old structures, we will reconstruct them remake them] their approach; get their supporters [who were soms non-voters, to come out and vote. their logos were black/white, understandable, clear. they got ignored by media, as they were perceived as rebels, their approach allowed fr a more rebellious approach. They got a large bus, painted provocative cartoons on it of unresolved corruption cases. it was a prisonbus. fundraising was done through a kickstarter platform. Small donations for clear achievable goals. They hired professional campaigners. Not just for their skils, but aso their network. Politics is about people, not only with politicians but also in media and marketing. Maybe even more so. one of our most viral things were songs. One of our leaders is an accodionist and singer. We created songs. they had a solar boat aso, promoted themselves as greens, and as pirates with the boat. communications and interal disagreements were an issue in their party also. [like in more Pirate parties] Prague was a large part of their team, they did try to keep connected to the regional Pirates. Centralization didnt really work. wen people miscncept you or dont know you, yu need to becme a relevant player then! team with other competent people. invest in a research about you and yur voters, it is worth more tan a ton of leaflets.

  • Full texts of the statute revisions are found within the Discourse:

https://ppi.savvy.ch/c/Proposals/statutes-revision

  • Revisions to Articles XII. Board and XIII. Functions of the Board. Motion “Increase the Board Size”

https://ppi.savvy.ch/t/revisions-to-articles-xii-board-and-xiii-functions-of-the-board-motion-increase-the-board-size/15

Name of the motion : Increase the Board Size
Presentation of the motion : We propose to increase the board size of PPI by 4 members

Keith; as the board we felt we needed a bigger team, need more manpower. counterproposal explanation by Germany:

Gregory, discusses the German rationale for increase by two members.

PPDE proposes that half of the new members are elected for one year, and the other half are elected for two years.

PPDE recommends only increasing the board size by two members.

PPIL would like at least 4 additional board members, owing to the increasing amount of work and human capital that the Board requires.
There was a question from PPCZ about what specific work the board needs help with. A list of vice-secretary positions was explained

a) Vice-Secretary for Member Relations b) Vice-Secretary for International Institutions and NGO Affairs c) Vice-Secretary for International Policies d) Vice-Secretary for Training e) Vice-Secretary for Communications and Social Media f) Vice-Secretary for Conferences and Special Events g) Vice-Secretary for IT (application development and website maintenance)

It was decided that this list does not need to be included in the statutes and can be decided among the board.
The original statute is as follows
(3) The Board is composed of: a) one Chairperson, b) one Vice-Chairperson, c) five additional Board Members
This statute would be changed to 3, 7 (PPDE) or 9 (PPIL).
There is a counter proposal from PPCZ for a smaller board of only 5 members.
Does the GA agree to increase the board size by 0, 2, or 4 members? Or decrease the board by 2 members? (This article would go into effect at the current GA.)
(3) The Board is composed of: a) one Chairperson, b) one Vice-Chairperson, c) five additional Board Members
Section c) of this statute would be changed to 3 (PPCZ), 7 (PPDE) or 9 (PPIL).
Argument to be aware of creating functions, because the board should not be the only body that is working.
Discussion that for UN ECOSOC, WTO, there needs to be formal representation. We have trouble serving our workload. Things like fundraising require a huge amount of hours, and we are falling short. Conference development also needs leadership. The increase in the number of board members is to ensure that the areas that we cover, which has grown, are covered. We need to have more people supporting us from a formal standpoint, and to bring leadership to support working groups. This will also help to get more people involved.
Comment that Pirates keep things simple.
Comment that we have to establish a quorum, so if there are more members it will be more difficult to establish a quorum.
Comment from Etienne that the proposal to increase the board size is a recommendation from board members, who know how much the board works and what they need. People are politically responsible from the GA. The GA can say that they do not like something, but the GA can decide if they want a particular member.
Comment that the board cannot handle all international organizations. Board members could not represent. Discussion that there are not enough funds... The goal should not be that giving a title motivates people to work. Giving someone a title and expecting them to work is how it works in every other party. It should be that people work, so we give them the title.

We are doing a straw pool on what proposal has most support. Winner will be then voted upon according to current statutes by 2/3 majority (11 votes needed)

We are voting to change section c) of statute XII.3, which would be changed from 5 to 3 (PPCZ), 7 (PPDE) or 9 (PPIL). Parties can support no proposals, one proposal, two proposals, or all.
