G’day,
On November 3rd and 4th Pirate Party International will be holding their 8th General Assembly in Munich.

- Transparency of financial structure and board operations

I’m inviting members of PPAU and interested others to attend as well.

I’ll be providing a report back to the following National Council meeting about
