3 - OPENING REMARKS/ANNOUNCEMENTS

3.1 - PP-US (proposed by Jerry)

PP-US elected a new board. More information on their website: http://www.pirate-party.us/ Joachim I sent you the contact details of the new board for our contact list.
In the press release (on the website) there is more information. Joachim will add and compare the contact details.

3.2 - PP of the Week (proposed by Jerry)

This week's PP of the week will be Germany: http://www.pp-international.net/pirate_party_of_the_week-Germany Questions have been sent out to PP-Kazakhstan, PP-Italy and PP-Luxembourg. We are still waiting for answers from PP-DK, PP-BR (they have wrote us back, but will not answer our Questions at the moment) and PP-Bulgaria.

For the preparation of one of the next "PP of the week", a mail about PP Italy with the addresses of the board of PP Italy was sent to the Board of PP Int. by Joachim.

4 - AGENDA

4.1 - Conference refunds (proposed by Jerry)

Nicco should have more information on who still hasn't been paid the refund.
We should get more information from Nicco. Jerry will ask him for a document with the details if he cannot make it to the meetings.

4.2 - Webspace and domain (proposed by Jerry)

We need the login information to be able to migrate the website to a new server. Gregory and Steffen should make a proposal on this matter. There is also the proposal to register an .org domain for PPI where we would setup the new website and the sub-domain for the calendar, press releases and other projects.
Gregory has the login information.
Steffen has made an offer to rent a (managed) v-server and make it available to PPI.
We will publish a short RFQ on the int gerneral mailing list. (Gregory will do this)
Some offers have been collected, some are still missing. Next meeting we will decide, if no quorum we will decide via e-mail.

4.3 - Calendar (proposed by Jerry)

Steffen set up a test calendar for PPI: http://steffen-ortmann.de/calendar1/month.php We should use this calendar as a means to collect all important events for Pirates.
The system can be adjusted ot our needs, no need and quicker than programm a whole new system. Best would be to host in on the PPI webspace, but Steffen could host it under a sub-domain.
We will test the system until next week.
