edition.<br><br>Second: I added <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://int.piratenpartei.de/Towards_a_Strengthened_Network_and_Information_Security_in_Europe_Questionnaire">another one</a>[2]
-for this we aren't in such a hurry, we have time until 9th of January-
about ENISA and security policies on the Internet. Most of the topics
covered by the consultation I think they're not within PPI context;
however, as those policies may lessen civil rights & liberties, I
propose that PPI makes a joint reply.<br><br>Third: To avoid, in a future,
this kind of hurry, I've modified <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://int.piratenpartei.de/EC_consultations">our EC Consultations page</a>[3], with a direct link to <a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://ec.europa.eu/yourvoice/consultations/index_en.htm">the EC consultations page</a>[4];
thus, we all will be able to update our page and add new consultations
to be replied. This will allow us to have more time to develop better
replies and prepare properly our joint press releases -thus, helping
Andrew to make his duties as PPI PR's responsible-.<br><br>Comments?
Suggestions? If no comments nor suggestions, let's proceed to the most
urgent pending consultation; we need to meet on sunday to get the
reply's draft ready to be sent -though I probably won't be available
for sunday afternoon, I'll try to get one PIRATA representative-.
