[9:05pm] yari: With that, it seems we have everyone - so let's get started! I'm calling this meeting of the PNC to order at 9:05pm EST. ID's please!
[9:05pm] yari: (Sorry, not everyone, but a quorum)
[9:05pm] pmchi: Mitchel Davilo, Chicagoland/ILPP, Swarmcare Manager
[9:05pm] Bosun: Joseph Klein USPP vice chair rep WI
[9:06pm] yari: Rose Klein, CA, PNC chair
[9:06pm] jokeefe: James O’Keefe, Secretary (temporary MA rep until Joe arrives)
[9:07pm] jokeefe: Meeting page: https://wiki.uspirates.org/w/index.php?title=PNC_09/05/21
[9:07pm] papegaai: Title: PNC 09/05/21 - United States Pirate Party (at wiki.uspirates.org)
[9:07pm] yari: Let's start with reports. Jokeefe, what do we have from the IT committee?
[9:08pm] jokeefe: We met last Thursday and set a set of objectives we want to accomplish at https://etherpad.pp-international.net/p/USPP_Crew_Needs. Next meeting is this Thursday, 9pm Eastern
[9:08pm] papegaai: Title: Etherpad (at etherpad.pp-international.net)
[9:10pm] yari: Okay, wodensday is not currently present (trying to connect), let's move on to some officer reports.
[9:10pm] Wodensday joined the chat room.
[9:10pm] yari: pmchi - swarm care?
[9:10pm] Wodensday: Anthony Jay, IN
[9:11pm] yari: Thank you wodensday, welcome
[9:11pm] Bosun: Speaking of the devil.
[9:12pm] pmchi: Illinois officially has a website! Currently seeking one representative willing to appear at weekly PNC meetings in order to officially be eligible for state recognition.
[9:12pm] Frank joined the chat room.
[9:13pm] pmchi: About a year ago I reached out to Chile’s PP about a Pan-American Pirate Network. Seeing as I only *just* got the ILPP website up and running, I’d say that wasn’t my place to do on behalf of the party. However, I saw on Telegram that Mauricio (of the CLPP) said how “He’d love a Latin American coordination”. So, naturally, I reached back out to reignite discussions. Between them and Australia (who I know have been wanting
[9:13pm] pmchi: to work with us), I think we are in good shape
[9:13pm] yari: pmchi, good to hear! Glad we might have another state on here soon. Do we have any other leads on states that might be able to start forming parties soon?
[9:14pm] pmchi: There was the Wisconsin Pirate who was supposed to reach out to Bosun. Also Indiana (hello Wodensday) is also in the works
[9:14pm] yari: And yes, I need to discuss with outreach (wodensday) and yourself about the contact with Australia.
[9:14pm] yari: I will email you about that
[9:15pm] Guest52 joined the chat room.
[9:15pm] Wodensday: Indiana website is in progress! Cannot give a time on its completion yet though
[9:15pm] Guest52: hello, this is William Dappen, CA rep
[9:15pm] yari: Bosun can I have your permission to forward your email to a pirate on the discord who wants to help with WIPP?
[9:16pm] Bosun: Yes and phone#
[9:16pm] yari: Will do Bosun
[9:16pm] pmchi: I believe our West Virginia Pirate popped in as well? Not trying to call attention to him, but WV is another state who showed interest in forming
[9:16pm] Frank: I am still interested in making a West Virginia Pirate Party.  I understand that it will take time. 
[9:16pm] yari: Frank could you ID please?
[9:16pm] Bosun: More like peoplee.
[9:17pm] yari: Unless you intend to just lurk, in which case feel free to lurk
[9:17pm] Guest52 is now known as Radiojoe.
[9:17pm] Frank: Frank Decapio, West Virginia.
[9:17pm] yari: Thank you Frank
[9:17pm] yari: And RadioJoe welcome
[9:17pm] Frank: You're welcome.
[9:17pm] pmchi: Frank if you get a state party and website up in under a year then you’re a quicker organizer than I. We can help you every step
[9:18pm] yari: Woensdag glad to hear about the website!
[9:18pm] yari: *wodensday
[9:18pm] yari: Goodness what the heck autocorrect
[9:18pm] Frank: I appreciate the support.  I want to make a website, but it will take time for me do so.
[9:18pm] pmchi: That’s the old German spelling
[9:19pm] Wodensday: Ah yes, Woensdag, Wodensday from old high germany
[9:19pm] Bosun: tag
[9:19pm] Wodensday: Grimm's law moved it from dag to tag
[9:19pm] yari: Frank please let us know when you would like assistance.
[9:20pm] yari: And same for you Wodensday and pmchi. Excited for more volunteers and states to join!
[9:21pm] yari: With all the connections from the swarmcare report done with, Wodensday - can you tell us about outreach?
[9:21pm] Wodensday91 joined the chat room.
[9:22pm] jokeefe: Next meeting will be streamed, yes?
[9:22pm] Wodensday91: So sorry about that, this is still Anthony Jay, IN
[9:22pm] yari: Correct, jokeefe. I intend to keep every second Sunday of the month at the least
[9:22pm] yari: Wodensday, could you give outreach report please?
[9:22pm] Wodensday91: During our last outreach meeting, we edited the pirate address started by Jokeefe for the War in Afghanistan, to be published at a later day.
[9:23pm] Wodensday91: Our current draft can be found here: https://etherpad.pp-international.net/p/USPPAfghanistanStatement
[9:23pm] papegaai: Title: Etherpad (at etherpad.pp-international.net)
[9:23pm] Wodensday left the chat room. (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
[9:23pm] Wodensday91 is now known as Wodensday.
[9:23pm] yari: When will it be published?
[9:24pm] Wodensday: A date is yet to be set.
[9:24pm] yari: My understanding is that outreach does not need to coordinate with PNC to publish content
[9:24pm] yari: Just needs to clear with either chair or vice-chair
[9:25pm] yari: Is that correct?
[9:25pm] Bosun: Let's get it out ASAP.
[9:26pm] yari: agreed with Bosun.
[9:26pm] Wodensday: If that is the case, the objective can be for outreach to complete and post this by Wednesday. The platform(s) for distribution can also be a question undertaken by outreach.
