<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', 'Lucida Grande', Verdana, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); "><p>Dear fellow Pirates,</p><p>this text is originally an answer to the Brazilian Pirate Party which has requested aid and information on how to use our liquid-democracy tool "LiquidFeedback" in their own organisation. We decided to spread that answer to all of our fellow pirates all over the world.</p>
<p>We are glad and even a bit proud to hear your request about the LiquidFeedback software. We are happy to tell you that our executive board has decided to provide a testing environment for your purposes, hosted on our server.</p>
<p>It is encouraging for us to know that the Brazilian Pirates want to establish participatory democracy and direct participation within their organisation. Using LiquidFeedback will be another step in that direction. In Germany, the principles of liquid democracy are already part of the statutes of the Berlin chapter. We hope that the Brazilians will have an equally good experience with LiquidFeedback as we have had so far.</p>
<p>We'd like to help you with further steps into liquid democracy. If at some point you decide to set up your own independent system, we would like to guide you through the process. Meanwhile, we will upgrade and maintain your instance.</p>
<p>We will appreciate your feedback and provide any help and advice we can give you.</p><p>Regards,</p><p>the Berlin chapter of the German Pirate Party</p></span><br>-- <br>Piratenpartei Deutschland / LV Berlin / Öffentlichkeit und Presse / <a href="http://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Benutzer:Mpd">http://wiki.piratenpartei.de/Benutzer:Mpd</a><br>
