[Chapter-delegates] PES on ACTA - wow!

[Eduard Tric]

Right  Veni, as PES's are already convinced,  let's not waste time re-convincing them and try to focus on governments (they can freeze Acta very fast), EPP's and independents.
The Estonian government  just freezed acta ratification http://bnn-news.com/economy-minister-blocks-ratification-acta-49079 , so now it is more an exercise (where Isoc may/should/must play a role ) of setting up and participating to a multistakeholder democratic process for the new treaties : Acta2 and Apta (piracy).

Eduard,
point taken - already sent the message back to PES. Now, I wish we find 
approach to the EPP as well ;)
