Readers interested in all aspects and all sides of copyright may find a frolic to Germany an amusing way to spend the pre-Ides of March weekend. The Pirate Party International has announced that its General Assembly will be taking place in Friedrichshafen in a few months.
The General Assembly meeting’s main events include:
- Electing a new board, apply here
- Discussions of amendments to the PPI statutes, submit proposals here
- Decisions on new members
There will also be an Open Space workshop:
“Open Space Technology is a powerful tool that allows [sic] to handle the most complex matters with the ease of a coffee break, and will allow us to take a glance at the future of the PPI.
We'll open a space where you'll work with other pirates to identify and address the most important issues in your work, your organization and your community. Come prepared with your own burning questions and pressing needs... and be ready to address them in a dynamic, high-learning environment.”
Non-members are welcome to attend as guests and each member can register up to six official delegates. If think it would be much more interesting to have a six-way split personality than just be yourself, you can apply for membership here.
If any 1709 readers attend the conference, we would love to hear from you after the event.
