Just FYI to all: we're almost at ten responses, which is going to be the size of the first batch.  There might be another batch sent out this term, but that's uncertain -- if you were thinking about getting an ID card, now is the time!

@Baron Alexandreu Davinescu @Carlüs Éovart Vilaçafat Any updates here? Hopefully this can move faster than the Chancery's work on the Census...

This is unnecessarily rude S:reu Seneschal. How exactly would you like me to make things move faster? Shall I learn how to hack the database? Force MPF to work less hours to assist me?

No, it is no more rude than you suggesting "ever?" as an appropriate inquiry for receipt of the ID cards. My point was to be weary of glass houses when complaining, Mr. Secretary.

If we need to drop the Skills Initiative to get the Census going then that might be the way forward or consider a different option for distribution entirely. But not doing it is unacceptable.

So your strategy is if you think someone is being rude, let's also be rude? Gotcha. I wasn't being intentionally rude, and I apologize for using the word ever. I'm just as annoyed at your government as the previous government over this issue but it was beneath me nevertheless.

As for the census, I would love to implement it. I literally have no way of manually beginning it, as I explained previously. It was my understanding from early in my time as Secretary of State that it was automatic as a census occurred without my input right after I took over. I believe now I was wrong and it must be triggered. I'm sorry that it has not happened. This is something I personally do not control.

I guess you can tell I'm frustrated by this state of affairs. I am sorry if my expression of frustration was rude.

The first batch were poorly-printed, and so I reordered them from a different vendor.  I hope to get them out to everyone at the start of next month.

As I understand it, that issue of cards never actually got done, so we rolled you into the next issue.

The current issue closed out when it seemed like we weren't going to get any more applicants, about halfway through June.  If you look earlier in the thread, you can see me doing last call in the last couple of days of May.  I processed them and sent them to the printer, but the first issue didn't look good when I got them back about two weeks ago.  I have selected a different vendor and sent them out again.  We expect you should have your ID in your hands by the end of August.

Thank you, Baron. I am almost certain that I'll be moving before then, though I don't have a solid address yet. Can I ask that mine not be mailed out until I have that nailed down?

I probably applied for my initial card as soon as they were available. (You know me, I instantly jump on anything free.) Mic'haglh Autofil sent me a nice letter with my card. The letter was dated July 26, 2022. So it's not quite been a full year since this service was available. (I lost the card and have applied for my second one...yeah, I lost my ID card weeks after I got it, but still have Autofil's letter that accompanied it...)

So the batch that was never sent out was a few months ago but before the severely delayed transferral of the files from Autofil.
Baron, thanks for being on top of this.
