I nominate GV also.

The "usual tradition" is for both Chambers to be led by non-government members.

Yes; this would atomize those responsibilities to allow them to be more fluidly assigned according to the needs of the moment.  I think it would better reflect actual practice.

It explicitly names 15 portfolios of ministerial responsibility, but keeps 12 of them within the Seneschalsqåb unless delegated. Since the Seneschal can *already* take on as many portfolios as they like (I think we've been calling this "stacking"), I'm not aware of a problem.

There was a Member of Cosa who mentioned this last time:

I was leaning towards the Baron on the grounds that he's proved his competence to work in the CRL, but the best response to this kind of political aggression is to vote for Dien.

Quote from: Baron Alexandreu Davinescu on Yesterday at 09:07:52 AMIt seems to me we probably want to keep to the usual choice of having different parties in different chambers.

Sorry Senators, but I need to chime in to ask since when is that the usual choice?

I'm not familiar with any provision transferring administration of the wiki to the Chancery.  I'm fairly sure that it's a Propaganda or Technology issue, unless I missed a significant legal change.

Quote from: King Txec on Yesterday at 12:00:53 PMWouldn't it be better if we operated our Wiki the way Wikipedia does instead of potentially criminalizing edits to TW?

Yeah, this is weaksauce.

I don't like the urge to criminalise political speech if it annoys us, and I'm very surprised to see this coming from the PA. Especially since the PA leader once deliberately vandalised a namespace wiki page to make a political point.

We need proper wiki moderation, which is a Chancery issue, and I support efforts in that regard. Troll edits should be removed and repeat offenders should get banned, but that is a moderation issue not Call The Police.

Actually, this reduces the statutory ministries down to 3.  You should read the outline -- I think it's a pretty good new approach.
