This wiki is predominantly for the use of the members of the Pirate Party Australia, its main intention and reason is for the internal development of policy and other collaborative projects as well as serving as an information repository for some of the most often referred to information sources. The main site will still serve as the only official point for the distribution of party information, campaigning materials and messages. To combat spam, only registered users will be able to edit documents and view/participate on talk pages. Please register an account.

Current Events and Projects

Current projects:
We are currently in the process of constructing the party constitution, which acts to define the goals, ideals and structure of the party and is necessary if we are to register the party as per Part XI of the Commonwealth Electoral Act 1918. The Australian Electoral Commission or AEC distributes an electronic "Party Registration Handbook which serves to explain the requirements and responsibilities of registering a federal party within Australia. To contribute to this process, please peruse what we have written thus far, and discuss what you feel may be added or removed from the, as of yet, unratified document on the party's public forum or on the talk page for the document. Remember, this document will serve to provide the structure of the party, and will act as a means of resolving any possible future internal party disputes and govern its development and leadership. It should be a document which encapsulates all that the party aspires to achieve. It is a very important document. It will also be necessary for the the party's incorporation.
Here, our current policies are being developed, or are under review. Follow to see an overview, or contribute to their development.
It has been proposed that we should develop a small repository of literature, websites, journal articles, movies, audio, blogs and events that relate to the "Pirate" movement. If you know of, or have any materials that should be on the reading list, add them here.
To reform the current system of intellectual monopoly, to the extent the party would seek to do so, will require a concerted international initiative, and the Pirate Party International (PPI) is the umbrella organisation for all National Pirate Parties. It's currently in the preliminary stages of drafting an International Pirate Manifesto, which will seek to unify and focus the international push for IP reform, and the other associated platforms, and will in turn provide some of the basis for the European parties to contest EU elections. The Pirate Party Australia is committed to being a part of this process.
