3 GA 2015
- From the previous meeting
- Location in Poland, Warsaw is no longer available. Plan B had been visited by Bastian and Thomas.
- Plan B: Łódź has been the proposal - (a University) - the place is usable. Got a quick Internet connection. Multimedia is available.
- Bastian: we should ask Milano pirates first, if their offer is still standing.
- Gregory: we also could cancel the whole GA and reopen the tender proccess.
- Bastian: it is not really a problem to go to Lodz for those who already have booked their flight to WAW. We should wait, if Milan is available, but we could also find some other location in WAW (but it would not be easy).

- Lodz costs about 1,000 – 2,000 EUR more than the original offer.
- Marco leaves at 21:24 CEST

- Postpone the decision until this Saturday and ask our members in the meantime, in fact everybody on pp-leaders list, since our members would be the ones to travel to whereever the GA will be, so their opinion is relevant.
