Quote from: xpb on March 14, 2026, 10:23:19 PMnote: data collected by Breneir duing impulse #1 for Asgardia not including SWOT analysis has been submitted to their foreign ministry for review of accuracy - this is an information gathering step only, not establishing any specific relationship

Hey @xpb

In starting to finally get to work on the second report for the Dominion of Vancouver Island I noticed this note concerning the Asgardia report. Have you heard anything back from Asgardian Foreign Ministry?

Asgardia did not reply to my March 2 inquiry: Establishing Asgardia information for Talossan Factbook 2026.  I most recently received from them their general newsletter on June 18th (their unity day) indicating that their upcoming 10-year anniversary 12 October 2026.

meanwhile there's an effort by Microcon/Slowjamistan to create a more terse directory that wouldn't have the details of the fact book but could be a starting point to collect information from.

This has been laggy in no small part to my peripheral activities.  I remain fairly constrained by other work likely till mid August 2026.

oops yep I missed it too

crickets

My original process was a bit clunky and may need revision.  I think the main issues raised have been to insure that there is no representation that there is any implied diplomatic relationship by the collection or verification of the fact sheets.

In addition, there have been issues raised as if the aforementioned was misunderstood, in that in the eyes of various organizations or individuals that specific citizens should be precluded from participating in the collection of data.  Unless there is some official sanction or ban or perhaps expulsion from citizenship I should think that anyone should be able to participate.  This appears to be a straw man argument for ulterior purposes.

At any rate, until such time as there would be a ban from someone participating in these forums, information that they gather on the mircronational ecosystem should be pursued with full vigor.  Each person, as they see fit, may collect information on any of the listed foreign entities or suggest new ones to list, and that should different individuals acting as liaisons decide to pursue information on the same entity, that data may be merged and balanced as appropriate by the foreign ministry.
