Wittenberg / Re: An Informal Terpelaziun
Last post by Baron Alexandreu Davinescu - Today at 11:50:35 AM
Quote from: Mic'haglh Autófil, O.Be on Today at 01:55:14 AMThe bill passed in January. We are now in the final days of July. The email address has not yet been created. The Government has not yet complied with one of the key pieces of their own legislative agenda.

Does the Minister have any sort of estimate on when this Government will begin following its own laws, or does he anticipate that this will instead be an issue left for the next Government to fix for him?

In March, I informed the Ziu that there were some technical challenges with creating the account.  Specifically, our system was only set up to allow for either empty email forwarding accounts or full accounts associated with citizens -- not the alias that we wanted to create.  The Minister of Technology asked for a little time to implement this, since it required some changes to the infrastructure, and I passed that along to the Ziu.  A few weeks later, in April, we got it set up and working.  After a few weeks, we were confident that it was working correctly, and I handed off the information to His Majesty.  That seems like a pretty fast timeline to me, and it was all reported out publicly at the time.

During May, off and on, His Majesty worked at figuring out how to change the password on the new system, and then we bounced back and forth with that until we had it figured out by the first days of June.  At that point, I didn't hear anything more about it, so I assumed that it was all working okay.

I'd like to come to His Majesty's defense, though, and point out that His Grace has been doing his best and that it's fairly reasonable for their to be some hiccups when implementing a new system.  We're all volunteers, and we've been trying to be conscientious about things like data protection when setting a lot of this up.

If I may, the issue is entirely with me. The email address does exist but I was having trouble with the password change setting. I completely forgot about this and I sincerely apologize.  This one has nothing to do with my government. Please PM me an email address I can send login instructions to.

Wittenberg / An Informal Terpelaziun
Last post by Mic’haglh Autófil, O.Be - Today at 01:55:14 AM
Normally of course, I would open this by addressing the Tuischac'h, but with the dissolution of the Cosă there is no Tuischac'h to address! However, the relevant Minister to which I would address this question has graciously agreed to answer it anyway, and so if I may pose the following "informal Terpelaziun" to the Minister of Immigration, @Baron Alexandreu Davinescu :

This Government made the passage of the Public Process Act an issue of the last campaign, and after the URL was able to ensure improvements to the bill to render it enforceable, it did indeed pass with bipartisan support. One of those improvements mandated the creation of a "shadow" email address that would allow the Leader of the Opposition to monitor incoming citizenship applications in order to maintain transparency in the process.

The bill passed in January. We are now in the final days of July. The email address has not yet been created. The Government has not yet complied with one of the key pieces of their own legislative agenda.

Does the Minister have any sort of estimate on when this Government will begin following its own laws, or does he anticipate that this will instead be an issue left for the next Government to fix for him?

Has anyone seen Disclosure Day and care to share your review? What I have seen online has been mostly negative.

Congratulations to the Maritiimi-Maxhestic Mençeis for winning leg 2 of the 2026 TCAT season!!!


Oh my goodness... I've always loved participating in this amazing Talossan tradition, but this is such a special moment.

We need to get the team together for a group photo!  Wait, why's that president in the photo?  Someone get him out of here.  Gianni, get over here and... oh, well.

Thank you to the TCAT team for another amazing race!
