This was one of my major grievances. This was suddenly decided upon as a motion in the final segment of the assembly. Several remote delegates were not pleased with the handling of this motion, as we basically got entirely ignored, and 7 or 8 random people got voted upon without any prior explanation of who they are or what qualifications they hold.<br>
<br>The whole thing was a farce, and was subject to an email to the board in disgust by quite a few delegates.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 23 March 2011 02:24, Andrew Norton <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:ktetch@gmail.com">ktetch@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

I was reading through the Italy thread here, and it mentioned the Court<br>
of Arbitration. That had been mentioned in the old statutes, and dealt<br>
with a little in the amendments.<br>
<br>
So, the PPI site now lists (<a href="http://int.piratenpartei.de/PPI_CoA" target="_blank">http://int.piratenpartei.de/PPI_CoA</a>) not<br>
only a basis for it, BUT a full court.<br>
WTF? (un)Surprisingly, they're ALL representing European Parties (again)<br>
but I'm not seeing anything about the appointment in the minutes from<br>
the board meeting<br>
(<a href="http://int.piratenpartei.de/PPI_Board_Minutes_2011-03-19" target="_blank">http://int.piratenpartei.de/PPI_Board_Minutes_2011-03-19</a>) and I checked<br>
the schedule from the Conference<br>
(<a href="http://int.piratenpartei.de/wiki/images/6/6a/PPI_Conference_2011_-_Agenda.pdf" target="_blank">http://int.piratenpartei.de/wiki/images/6/6a/PPI_Conference_2011_-_Agenda.pdf</a><br>
) and found no mention there either. So, where did this list of people<br>
come from? (and why, yet again, is it only west/central Europe represented?)<br>
