I guess it's not clear the next steps here, since there's no official applicant.  I'd suggest that maybe the way to go is for the Coletx (in your person) recommend a course of action to the Ziu, and then a legislator can act on that.  Maybe the way to go is to recommend that they delete the current symbols from el Lexh, and then recommend substitute blazons?

Huzzah!

It's fine with me. I think that I would be allowed to make this determination, unless someone objects?

Yes, noon EST.

Please post a link in the chat room. I believe that unregistered users cannot see it.

I've heard good things about the show, but I heard the same good things about the Mandalorian, and I couldn't make it past the 3rd episode of that. Maybe I'll have to give this another try. I've been enjoying the newest Trek shows, myself.

I have set a time. If that seems too speculative, let me just say that it is official now.

A quick search on Witt doesn't turn up any kind of announcement or anything about that.

... AD, you knew perfectly well on October 23 who the new leader of the Free Democrats is. Did you get a hit to the head between then and now?

That's quite rude. Yes, I forgot that your party had a new leader. But I'm just trying to make sure that your party leader is notified of their opportunities and responsibilities, so I don't know what is prompting the attitude.

I apologize.  I didn't know.

A quick search on Witt doesn't turn up any kind of announcement or anything about that.  Was there an election or something?  It looks like @Ian Plätschisch is the acting leader, currently?  (According to this message: https://wittenberg.talossa.com/index.php?topic=1312.msg15352#msg15352)

I figure that 11 am TST is probably a good time.  Evening in Europe, morning in Godzone.

So do you think every four calendar months is a good term length?  Or should we actually make it ten months, if we want to avoid unrealistic expectations about our activity for the nonce?

I've looked this over a few times, and I can't see anything jumping out at me to change.

@Ian Plätschisch and @Breneir Tzaracomprada , please be aware that you'll be provided the opportunity to make brief speeches, should you so choose.  Three to five minutes would probably be respectful of everyone's time, if you're looking for a guideline.

@Eiric S. Bornatfiglheu , I was thinking it might be appropriate to have you make apologies for any senators who can't make it, if you're willing, as Mencei?  And then party leaders ( @Dr. Txec dal Nordselvă, GST and @Breneir Tzaracomprada and @Mic'haglh Autófil, MC EiP  ) would make apologies for their own.  That all sound good to everyone?

@Eiric S. Bornatfiglheu , I was also hoping you would be Doorkeeper and Sergeant at Arms?

I will invite His Majesty to attend, and ask him to serve as Chaplain to deliver the invocation and/or address the Living Cosa with general remarks as sovereign.

So I'm not sure the assembly call thing is working.  Seems like we might want to have a way to get new people into the Assembly more often than every eight to nine months.  We can't just make it at will, though, since then it's going to be heavily prejudiced depending on whenever something comes before us that's contentious.  So I was thinking we should decouple from the national elections and hold our calls more frequently.  Maybe a convocation is reduced in length to four months?  That's only a third in length of what it used to be, before Cosa lengths were so significantly increased in length.

Any thoughts on this?

I'll add in some general time for comments, for things like that.

I'm trying to figure things out so that I can do it. I won't have any childcare that day, so I'll have three little kids, but I might be able to make it work because my brother will be visiting for Thanksgiving. If I can't do it, I will choose someone and confirm with them that they can do it in advance of the event.

Huzzah!
