Agenda

• PPI Conference Debriefing
• Crew Brussels organization
• Elections 2012
• Extra items (not on the agenda)
• To-Do

PPI ConferenceDebriefing

• The conference was held on 14th-15th April in Prague
• Were present from PP-Be : Marouan (delegate MA), Antonio(Spain), Paul, Glenn, Jonas, Pieter, Toon, Jurgen
• Minutes from the conference can be found here : http://www.pirati.cz/wiki/en:zo:docs:minutes
• There was a vote to renew the PPI board but PPBe abstained because we don't agree with the principle of an umbrella organisation
• There was a vote to recognise PP-Catalunya as an official member of the PPI : PP-Be voted in favor and the motion passed, but it is apparently contrary to the PPI statutes and likely to cause further complications
• On PP-EU, a document in the form of an agreement in principle to come forward together in the European elections

Crew Brussels organization

• There is need for a new captain and navigator for the current Brussels crew (which atm groups all Brussels municipalities)
• It was suggested that Claire might be interested in being captain (tbc by her)
• We will hold a discussion/vote in 2 weeks during the next regular meeting on this issue

Elections 2012

• Organisation & planning :
  • For reference, deadline for presenting lists is 12 September
  • Marouan will present himself in Schaerbeek, Line in Brussels, Jurgen in Ixelles
  • Each one will organise the campaign on his/her own with a local mailing list
  • In Ixelles Jurgen has separated the municipality into zones and will start distributing flyers
  • Ultimately, it would be a good idea to present lists in both languages for greater visibility

• Priorities :
  • Attract public attention of PP-Be through the press and word of mouth
  • Encourage people to participate directly by focusing on the fact that lists are open and that the program will be built collectively
  • Considering the previous point, coming up with lists is a low-priority item : we will draw on the pool of people participating in the campaign, which should be as large as possible
  • We need 100 signatures of citizens or 2 signatures from elected officials to present a list --> Jurgen suggested we go see elected officials to get their support

Extra items (not on the agenda)

• Meetings organisation : it was suggested that future meetings start at 20.00 instead of 19.30
• New website : Marouan is working on it, will discuss it with Mike and the web squad

To-Do

• Marouan will add link to annual report of previous PPI board
• Marouan will send email to announce a meeting to discuss/vote on Brussels crew captain + navigator
• Marouan will discuss new website with the web squad + keep us informed
• Jonas will create an adress for the campaign's mailing lists
