Would another "manifesto" attempt be helpful? I don't think so. It makes things unduly complicated. Leave it to the academics to devise abstractions - a political party should be action-oriented.<br></blockquote>
<div><br> I'm okay with that, I do agree with you that Pirate Parties primary address copyrights, privacy and patents, and in those fields pirates advocate a liberal policy. But then someone starts talking about parties abusing of the "pirate party" brand because he/his party may not agree with the specifics on one of those subject with another pirate party... <br>
<br>So I'll be okay with no manifestos as long as people don't start accusing each other of abusing the "Pirate Party" brand...:<br><br><br></div><div> On Thu, Dec 17, 2009 at 10:27 PM, Samir Allioui <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:samir.allioui@pp-international.net" target="_blank">samir.allioui@pp-international.net</a>></span> wrote:</div>

Well, it is one of the 3 ingredients that makes a pirate party an pirate party.<br>If this one is not excluded, you're nothing but a party who is (ab)using a strong brand.</blockquote></div>
