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 have answered 3 press interviews as PPI rep (one regarding PP-IT-32, one regarding Russias submission to regulate internet by ITU, and one regarding Pirates and Anonymous to a greek magazine). Have been to the pp-eu conference to Rome, where i had different conversations around different PPI teams and projects. Recieved signed PPI HQ docs and sent them express to Ed.

The text wasn't sent yet, but is ready and if Lola and Gregory agree one of the co-chairman can spread it to all of our member parties.

I also had a Skype meeting with Lola regarding the PP-CZ situation and am currently drafting a response. I am waiting on the paperwork for the HQ from Gregory to sign and pass on to Travis.
