6.1. Catalans are requesting an asynchronus way of decison taking (they are asking for this through years already)… here the proposal of a well known developer of catalan pirates sent to me today:

 

Allow me to share a message for the board, which I already sent to PPI's Discord:

Hello from Barcelona! I just wanted to chime in, and inform that I'm planning to attend this next board meeting.

My intention is to show you a tool that we have developed at PP-CAT to vote in decentralized General Assemblies like PPI's.

The tool uses pseudoanonymous tokens for all the roles, from the GA's admins to the voters. Although it's not required here, it has  database design that guarantees the secrecy of the vote and by the time of the GA, additional countermeasures against tampering. In the close future we are planning to integrate it with Vocdoni.io, so it will be auditable too.

It has been already used with 50 concurrent users, casting 2000 votes. It's very flexible as it allows to prepare all the questions in advance, add or remove questions if needed during the vote, and control when and how long each question is open to vote.

Of course, it's free software: https://github.com/coopanio/assemblea

With all of this, I hope PPI will adopt our tool, so the long times for voting, the hard logistics for the delegations, etc. will be a thing of the past 😉
