In light of the Veterans/CRA crisis I have been informed that Ms. Lulu Hilde Berlin has an intention to resign as ambassador to Charlotte Ryberg and I am being informed of a replacement that will be announced shortly.

You're right. Silly me! I'll do a full update later, but the error's been fixed. Thanks.

My Emigration draft is in the proposal pages now. I'm sorry I cannot run a telegram campaign because I have computing exam tomorrow and for the next few days: I invite you to do this on my behalf if you please. Thanks for your support and I hope it will work!

Sorry to be crap and reply out of character, but I don't really have an IC reason.

.Your latest revision (#20) is basically ok with the Quodites, and the continuing dictionary wars bore me senseless. I haven't had much time online since New Year festivities, then busy with essays, prioritising online time RPing my nation in the football World Cup (sad, I know). I can't really suggest what to cut from the character count: perhaps the bit about disability, in the hopes Urgench's resolution will pass and make it moot.

About this Universal Education Act thing: great work so far, but I am not sure if we should focus on the bare minimum requirements?

Well, I've complained before about the propensity of WA members to advocate excessive definitions: 'stapling appendices to proposals' was my phrase, I think. So I certainly sympathise.

I'm not sure if your message indicated that you were giving up, but if so: please don't. The very fact that so much war is being waged over one minute aspect of your proposal should be taken as an indication that most of it is very good. I've already written an education proposal myself and have no particular to flog a dead horse myself.

While I admit I did oppose your proposal at first, once you sorted out the religion nonsense I was mostly happy with it. I still think including any mention of indoctrination is a mistake, but I'll try to come up with a better definition if I can. Maybe try to ignore the OOC debate and concentrate on the basics.

If I totally misinterpreted your message, sorry, but if not: please don't give up. Your proposal has endured too much work and debate to be abandoned.
