Pirate Feedback
Pirate Feedback is a fork of the software LiquidFeedback. In particular, the concept of chain delegation has been replaced by the concept of preference delegation. To avoid confusion and thus corresponding to a concern of the authors of LiquidFeedback, this project has received its own name.
Pirate Feedback also includes many bug fixes and improvements.
Pirate Feedback is free software and may be used by anyone under the terms of the GNU General Public License, also outside the Pirate Party.
