style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Verdana'>Dear all,<br>
I'm using this mail to go in contact with you. Hopefully this will work.<br>
I would like to ask you all to give me a feedback on the following idea.<br>
<br>
Next days there will be a meeting of the Ex-Board (?) in <st1:City w:st="on"><st1:place
w:st="on">Paris</st1:place></st1:City>. This meeting will take place roughly 9
months after the Paris Party Congress. Since this congress the board had a lot
of meetings around the globe during which never ever was the discussed the
issue of our rights, the rights as Individual members in the Party. So finally
(after being for years – since Athens - a member without any rights) I would
ask you to send a letter from our side to the Board meeting asking to find
urgently a solution and to involve us in this process / decision how the
solutions should looks like. I personally stopped 9 months ago to pay my Party
contribution (no rights - no obligations) but nobody is caring about that.
<br>
Would someone be interested to write together with me this letter and to sign
it.<br>
<br>
Kind regards<br>
<br>
Norbert<br>
