Okay! We need to decide a few things related to the regional government. I also want to keep the momentum we've attained so far going, because once we lose that momentum we're going to start stagnating. First questions: Should we set up a provisional government while we work on a Constitutional Convention, or should we just remain governmentless until the Convention is finished? 2. When should we start the Constitutional Convention? Should we start it now, wait for a few more people to show up, etc.? 3. How should we hold the Convention? Multiple meetings over IRC? Just on the forums? A mix of both? 4. Who will preside over it? I nominate and second myself. I also opened and closed the voting, so I already have the position. (P.S., this is why Zdenka won't let me have admin permissions. )And, finally, what do you want the government of Barrayar to be like? Are there any things you want us to avoid? We're, obviously, going to be some kind of democratic state (Republic, Direct Democracy, Anarchy, etc.), but it would be nice to know what specifics you had in mind. (Note: I believe that all the threads in "Suggestions and improvements" would look great in the "regional Reform" subforum instead. Just sayin'...) Edited by Andropoland, 27 Jan 2013 - 04:56.

Constitutional Conventions aren't instant things. They take a few days, at least. I figure we can start it soon, though. How about an admin creates a subforum somewhere for that? We'll need one. |

Sooner than that. There are some people here even more impatient than me, namely Raven and Quinn. And I want it done and over with too, so we should start soon. Like, now would be perfect, but we need Zdenka and Keita on and stuff.

As soon as I'm able to wrangle the admins into helping start the dang thing. Which might take until Friday, knowing how they like to stall things.

Huh. Okay, we can work with this. I was thinking we just do an absolute free-for-all and try to patch something together, but that agenda will do.

I just thought it would help organize things in preparation. Any ideas? |

Thin ice, Andy. Thin ice. It's not like we've been sitting around doing nothing. You got your like/dislike buttons, profile fields and everything else. Give us a break. There's a lot to do, and UNLIKE you, I do have a full time job too. Also...why make a subforum when we have an empty debating hall, the purpose if which is...to debate in? I'll take the Agenda and break it down into threads so we can work on it.

The Debating Hall was for RL issues, I thought. |
