Letter from the Pirate Party of Slovenia – Pirate conference and upcoming election

The state of PPSI We’ve been active for 8 years. We’ve attended the 2014 EU elections (2.3%), the 2014 National elections (1.36% – we got ~80k EUR …

ANNOUNCEMENT: PPI General Assembly 2017

Greetings Pirates and Concerned Citizens of the World We hereby announce that the second 2017 GA will be held on November 25th and 26th. Further details about the GA are outlined below.

Introducing PPI Zoom meetings – taking collaboration to a new level

Pirate Parties International’s mission statement points towards us attempting to help our members cooperate between countries and continents. We also focus strongly on transparency in our own operation. Therefore we have decided to test out a technical platform that brings us together despite the number of miles between us. We have chosen to start using Zoom.us video conference solution. Zoom has video, audio, blackboard, chat, screen sharing, polling and annotations. Furthermore it lets us record all of those interactions. When we choose, it is end to end encrypted. What sets Zoom apart is that we can talk with video with up to 100 participants. During our testing we have found that …
