[Glüc]

Azul, everyone.
Because congress participation has been rather low so far and a number of deadlines have been missed, the congress leadership has decided to make a couple of changes to the agenda, provided there are no objections.

The most important changes are that the 2nd round of voting on the manifesto is postponed untill the 9th of August, the election of a party leader untill the 8th of August. This means that a couple of votes will overlap. We will have to deal with this as well as possible.

We would like to see participation increase during the remainder of the congress, and therefore I would encourage you all to register, discuss, vote, help your party by your contribution.

Further, I would ask every party member who has registered to submit their email adresses to Sevastain Pinatsch, so that he may hold secret ballot elections.
