<div dir="ltr"><div>Hi,<br><br>Since Pirate movement is more like a political party in incubation, and as it is political party in some other parts of this world, I am doubtful whether I can join it or not. Being a government servant I can't be a member of any political parties as it would be a violation of the service rules I must abide by being a regular servant.<br><br></div>Pardon.<br><div><div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">2015-04-28 19:05 GMT+05:30 Anivar Aravind <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:anivar.aravind@gmail.com" target="_blank">anivar.aravind@gmail.com</a>></span>:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5"><p dir="ltr"><br>

</div></div><p dir="ltr">If Debian and diaspora activities are followup of a pirate camp with that pirate label I don't have an issue . but while using pirate label on top of it as an official followup to use its momentum I feel it is not right . there is an issue while doing vice versa . I feel many people from.many backgrounds supported both Debian release parties and diaspora yatra . Now announcing an official followup action in a pirate frame alone disturbs me . I dont have a problem if your announcement worded like " Indian pirates were actively supported and participated in organizing diaspora yatra and Debian release parties and the "team pirates" want to organize piratecamps as a followup .</p>
<p dir="ltr">I feel many groups associated with both programs (ranging from kssp to dbg ) need tonne consulted before a pirate label as followup . I personally associated with both programs because it is free software promotion. I have a different opinion in bringing pirate label on free software related topics . it will confuse users and change the discussion plane to completely legal ground of licensing to the ground of piracy . btw I havbt seen any good open content movement from pirate folks till this point <br><br></p><div class="HOEnZb"><div class="h5">
