I still don't quite understand why we need summary reports when the threads themselves should suffice.

Though if compiling the timeline is this much of a priority, perhaps we could encourage more cooperation in updating the wiki to include all this information?  That is, after all, what it's there for...

I'm strongly in favor of developing a comprehensive plan for updating the wiki.  In my view, the regional executives should have a strong rule in adding their respective laws as long as they have access, so I would support summoning them to the hearing.

Well, I think the best idea I've heard was the "summary reports" one.  There needs to be a way to promote coordination between cabinet members, and that's probably the best way of doing so.  That, and holding cabinet members to that duty.  I'd recommend that either a statute or a constitutional amendment be passed to require the reports.  Hopefully our friends won't mind a little extra paperwork...

I think just a short overview of the events they wrote about along with what you mentioned will be appropriate.  

Enforcement shouldn't be much of a problem.  The President can either dismiss them from their duties or they can be impeached for refusing to follow through.  Otherwise, maybe there can be a built-in deadline for officeholders to complete their reports or else lose their positions.  In that case, I would think that a bi-monthly status report requirement is more appropriate so that they're constantly on their feet.

I'd move Morgieb to the top of that list. Tongue

Otherwise, no objection.

Thank you for your explanation, Governor.  I echo the concerns you have expressed on this matter, and I have no follow-ups.

However, to morgieb I will pose two simple question which I hope are addressed in his opening statements: Why, exactly, haven't you been active, and what do you plan on doing moving forward?

I hope this isn't the first time we vote to recommend the removal of someone from office...

I am also curious as to why President Napoleon didn't ask for his removal, and I'm eager to find out who he will be picking for a replacement.

As to morgieb, I am satisfied with his response and I am glad that he chose to do the responsible thing and step down.

Looks like this is it, fellas.

I wish I could stay...

...but the wind calls for me.
