Hi,
Below you will find our votes. We first considered all amendments
(annulled or not), and then considered the votings, based on our
consideration of the amendments.
For the votings with more than 2 options, how do the voting rules work
here? Maybe the required majority think that something has to be
changed, but some may vote for option 2 and some for option 3.
Also, we have a huge problem with amendment 3 having been annulled on a
technicality, and then refused to be reentered on another technicality.
This is IMHO bad because I think there is general consensus that this
change makes good sense. Without this change we may have a problem
ratifying the final document.
Best Regards,
Ole Husgaard.
-----------------------------
Amendment 1 +1
Amendment 2 +1
Amendment 3 +1
We consider this amendment important, and think there is consensus on
this point. Thus we have a problem with it having been annulled on a
technicality, and later denied reentry on another technicality. If we
had seen it being annulled before the deadline for proposing amendments,
we would have proposed it. We may have a problem ratifying the final
document without this (or a similar) change.
Amendment 4 +1
Amendment 5 +1
This is a simple grammar correction. If this is not passed we have an
interesting question: Should translations also have a grammar error here?
Amendment 6 -1
Amendment 7
This was originally merging amendments 3 and 6, later changed to instead
merge amendments 6 and 18.
We like the change in amendment 18, and it does not collide with the
change in amendment 3.
Amendment 8 -1
If this amendment is passed, the text "Anarchy is the ideal, and it is
to this end that we do aspire and work." may cause PP DK to not ratify
the final document.
Amendment 9
This was originally merging amendments 1 and 8, later changed to instead
merge amendments 8 and 11 (we think, as we see conflicting data in the
wiki).
Amendment 10
We have problems understanding this big and complex amendment changing
several different sections.
We do not like the first change, which is the same as amendment 11.
We like the second change, which is the same as amendment 12.
We do not like the third change, which is almost the same as amendment 13.
We do not like the fourth change, which is almost the same as amendment 14.
We like the fifth change, which is the same as amendment 15.
Amendment 11 -1
Amendment 12 +1
Amendment 13 -1
Amendment 14 -1
Amendment 15 +1
Amendment 16 +1
Amendment 17 -1
Though we do support the partial removal in amendment 12.
Amendment 18 +1
Amendment 19
This is merging amendment 12 and 17.
