However, that's perfectly compatible with developing the Manifesto and, also, developing our platform -I said in former mails that we should use Helsinki Conference to agree on a common platform (starting now to work on it, to have background papers there in Finland; and having the result of Helsinki Conference countersigned by each pirate party)-.<br><br>Hope you don't mean <span style="font-style: italic;">let's forget Manifesto (worldwide) & platform (EU-wide) to focus on streetwork</span>; hope you rather mean <span
