We will attempt to conduct the State Opening on our own platform: the link will be https://riunetz.talossa.com/StateOpening.

In honoring the agreement made with the leaders of the former boycott I decline participation in the State Opening. Perhaps the leader of the Independent Greens/Anarchists-Surrealists might be available.

Hi, I would request the seats be assigned to the Green Party leader @Crement Itravilatx or @Muhammed Yasir. I would also support not reassigning them at all. Hopefully neither of these suggestions would be found to be unreasonable or churlish, Seneschal.

Hear, hear!  They are amazing individuals and Talossans.

To my knowledge, this has never happened before.  I would suggest that @Breneir Tzaracomprada can advise about how he thinks his seats should be reassigned, and should such advice be neither unreasonable nor churlish, it could be accepted.  He and one other voter chose his party to represent them in the Cosa, so presumably he's the best-equipped to suggest who in the country will champion similar interests.  It need not be a current MC, of course.

Well this is certainly an interesting thing to come up. Has any previous King ever had to make a decision about vacant seats like this? This feels like uncharted waters for sure. I will give this some thought, but I would welcome the input of any MZ or interested citizen. I'll give a decision in a couple days.

This has been a trying week for Talossa's web infrastructure.  A PHP vulnerability combined with a lot of behind-the-scenes work tasks, and each one was met quickly and competently by the Secretary of State, Sir Lüc da Schir, and the Minister of Technology, Danihel Txechescu.

Most citizens never see this work.  When it's done well, nothing seems to happen -- the sites stay up, the data stays safe, and the business of the Kingdom carries on.  That's exactly what happened this week, and it happened because two people gave their own time to make sure of it.

Their work hasn't stopped at keeping the lights on, either.  Even while putting out fires, both have kept adding new features and improvements to our national web presence, and the Kingdom is better for it.

On behalf of the Government and the nation, I offer them our sincere thanks.

Signed,
Seneschal Alexandreu Davinescu, Baron Davinescu del Vilátx Fréiric

Thanks for the recommendation.

I was wondering whether the Organic Law has already been translated to Talossan.

I think it was intended to be, at least when it got its last major revision in 2017-19, but ultimately no. (Fwiw, it does get amended a couple times a year.)

Yup. I suppose we didn't take anything offline, and maybe we should have, but I can confirm it's been patched as soon as possible.
