Having little else to do with my copious free time

, I was reading the constitution. I.2 says in part

From: someone

The number of representative seats in the RA is equal to 10% of the population or seven whichever is greater.

The Members page at neualtenburg.org lists five members of the RA. What am I missing?

Oops. I'll add that to the list of items that need to be amended. The value was lowered to five as with the other branches occupied we didn't have enough candidates for the RA.

I'm planning on a constitutional convention while I'm on vacation over Christmas to pull together all the errors in the constitution. In early January we'll have the RA vote on the modifications.

That seems like a good idea. Pendari has mentioned having all kinds of red ink on her personal copy, and I admit I've thought of quite a few changes that need to be made myself. I don't necessarily find this worrisome - it was written for a very different situation than what currently is true - and while I've been putting up suggested amendments, a dedicated meeting to clear all of this up once and for all seems ideal.

Yes. Perhaps we should spawn an official thread to start collecting all these ideas in one place. We don't have to work on them yet, just collect all the problems we've discovered in one place.

I definitely second this proposal. Or third it. Whatever
