To: Lyubov, Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane), Richie Deschanel, Rosie Gray and Tanoujin Milestone
[12:08] Lyubov (20180414): Hello members of the 32nd Representative Assembly, and Friends and Citizens who have joined us today for the meeting.
[12:08] Lyubov (20180414): I wish you all health and good cheer for 2020. I have greeted a couple of new or returning Citizens recently. Please help me welcome them when you can. Almut Brunswick has rejoined us, and new names I’ve yet to meet; DJQT, DrHannibal Carthegan (mfalme), and there may be others.
[12:08] Lyubov (20180414): We have occasional new visitors and I encourage all of us to say hello and make them feel welcome without overburdening their sense of free, unselfconscious exploration of our beautiful home sites and public places.
[12:09] Lyubov (20180414): Speaking of public places, Monastery is now under the hopeful management of our own Tanoujin, who hopes to bring us expanded entertainment options there. Congrats to Kyoko for the successful opening of the New Art Café. I regret that I missed the event, featuring Calli as DJ. Soro would have loved this, and I continue to hope I will hear something from him or that he will return soon. I keep looking for him to pop in every day. I did see the Art Café last night, Kyoko, and it’s beautiful and a very smart exhibition with clever art.
[12:09] Lyubov (20180414): Our Budget continues to be in good shape, and I want to especially thank everyone for staying up to date on Tier. We expect to have a surplus this month, but it will be added to our available funds going forward, to cover more events and infrastructure improvements.
[12:10] Lyubov (20180414): This month, our featured event is an Ice Skating event on Saturday, the 18th of January, from 11:30 to 12:30 on Friedsee Lake. We will have DJ Maggie, the most adorable kitten who has found her mittens. I look forward to enjoying cocoa and conversation with everyone, and then perhaps enter the race. Of course, dancing is an option, too. The prize is a silver ice skate trophy, which Cathy has generously made for us. She would like to customize it for the winner and perhaps continue this as an annual event. Thanks so much for the dedicated work, Cathy.
[12:10] Lilith Ivory: Hi all
[12:10] Lyubov (20180414): I want to thank everyone who decorated the public areas for the holidays! This added so much cheer and many photo ops. I captured a few and tagged them as CDS on Flickr. If everyone would undecorate the public areas in the next week or two, it would save me from having to return the objects, which might feel rude. My apologies if I must eventually send them back to you. However, I’m getting attached to the orange VW parked at the curb in NFS. Nice touch, Laura Azalee!
[12:10] Rosie Gray: hi Lilith
[12:11] Lyubov (20180414): This is a slow time to relax and reflect after the holidays. This is a community that cares, and we govern ourselves with polite procedures for working out conflicts and challenges that often create chaos in the outer world. Our sims are better provisioned and have better performance and, more prim allowance, than ever. May the peace and harmony we find here, and the friendships we make, carry into positive change in our lives, as we skate into another year of democratic government.
[12:11] Lyubov (20180414): Next month, we look to Han to present a Valentine event. Cathy and I have discussed a return of the Bar Crawl events, although perhaps keeping them here in CDS. I welcome your suggestions.
[12:11] Lyubov (20180414): Your Chancellor, Emilia
6 January 2020
[12:11] Lyubov (20180414): Done.
[12:11] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you Emilia for your kind words and report!
[12:11] Tanoujin Milestone: applause and Hello Lilith
[12:11] Richie Deschanel: yes indeed
[12:12] Lyubov (20180414): Any comments or questions to enter into the record, before we proceed to the next agenda item?
[12:12] Rosie Gray raises a hand
[12:12] Rosie Gray: oops, never mind
[12:12] Lyubov (20180414): Yes Rosie, please.
[12:13] Rosie Gray: sorry
[12:13] Cathy Sabre: raises hand
[12:13] Lyubov (20180414): Yes Cathy?
[12:13] Cathy Sabre: I can share the trophy I am working on, and the poster, but can wait for peanut gallery comments
[12:13] Cathy Sabre: done
[12:14] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you Cathy. Citizen Concerns will come up shortly
[12:14] Cathy Sabre: good

[12:14] Lyubov (20180414): Our next agenda item is *3. LUC Report. Rosie, could you please update us on the LUC's activities?
[12:14] Rosie Gray: yes
[12:15] Rosie Gray: there is nothing further to report since our last LUC meeting on Dec. 15
[12:15] Lilith Ivory does think of comments like "peanut gallery" as offensive
[12:15] Cathy Sabre: Sorry
[12:16] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you Rosie. The next LUC meeting is scheduled for this coming Saturday, 11 January at 1000 SLT, correct?
[12:17] Lyubov (20180414): I believe so, next meeting Saturday at 1000 SLT.
[12:17] Rosie Gray: yes that's correct
[12:17] Rosie Gray: it's on the CDS events calendar
[12:18] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you once again Rosie.
[12:18] Lyubov (20180414): Our next agenda item is *4. Citizen Concerns
[12:18] Lyubov (20180414): Cathy, you have something you wish to add at this time?
[12:19] Cathy Sabre: I have posters for the January event, that I will be sending out shortly, along with an announcement for the race.
[12:19] Cathy Sabre: I am making a trophy that can be perpetual, if CDS wants to find a place to display it.
[12:19] Cathy Sabre: Perhaps the new facility that the LUC is working on.
[12:19] Cathy Sabre: done
[12:20] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you Cathy!
[12:20] Cathy Sabre: YVW

[12:22] Rosie Gray: hehe
[12:22] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane): (zzzzzzzzzzz...clunk)
[12:23] Richie Deschanel: hanging on your every word
[12:23] Lyubov (20180414): Now, it's time for Business...

[12:27] Lyubov (20180414): The Chancellor will be relieved! I recall the previous Chancellor also being quite relieved that she could finally spend money, after a hold-up on approval during the first meeting
[12:27] Lyubov (20180414): Next, *7. New Business
[12:27] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane) spent it anyway
[12:27] Richie Deschanel: prods Kyoko
[12:28] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane) giggles
[12:28] Lyubov (20180414): ssssshhhhh!
[12:28] Lyubov (20180414): 7.1 RA Journal - update RA page on Portal, https://cdsdemocracy.org/the-representative-assembly/?? to state that the RA Announcements board on the Forum, http://forums.slcds.info/viewforum.php?f=2?? is the Journal since the 30th RA and going forward. This is in compliance with the Constitutional requirement for an RA Journal of its proceedings, Article I, Section 5 https://cdsdemocracy.org/cds-constitution/
[12:28] Tanoujin Milestone: since the 30th?
[12:29] Richie Deschanel: not been updated since
[12:29] Lyubov (20180414): well there has not been any update to the Journal page since the 30th....so i though to cover that period also...
[12:29] Tanoujin Milestone: i understand
[12:29] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane): <--bad chancellor
[12:29] Rosie Gray: I am not sure we need to state a date
[12:29] Rosie Gray: if we don't include a date, then it just covers any that are missing
[12:29] Richie Deschanel: I agree - just change the process
[12:29] Lyubov (20180414): oooo like that idea Rosie
[12:30] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane) does too LOL
[12:30] Tanoujin Milestone: I have a question
[12:30] Lyubov (20180414): Yes Tan?
[12:30] Tanoujin Milestone: I was of the opinion the transcripts and minutes on the portal are our journal?
[12:30] Tanoujin Milestone: is that orrect?
[12:31] Lyubov (20180414): There are transcripts, agendas, and minutes on the Portal, on the RA Journal page
[12:31] Rosie Gray: when was the last time you looked, Tan?
[12:31] Lyubov (20180414): In recent terms, these are only links to the Forum
[12:31] Rosie Gray: if you do, yes only links for some time
[12:31] Tanoujin Milestone: ohh
[12:32] Tanoujin Milestone: okay
[12:32] Tanoujin Milestone: so we change the focus to the forums?
[12:32] Lyubov (20180414): Rather than duplicate the Forum posts to the Portal, or continue to make links, we could just say that the Forum is the Journal, rather than the Portal page
[12:32] Richie Deschanel: it is more administratively efficient to use the forums only
[12:32] Tanoujin Milestone: okay, now I get you
[12:32] Rosie Gray: it is
[12:33] Tanoujin Milestone: i have no objections
[12:33] Lyubov (20180414): Let me draft a motion, without specifying the date....
[12:33] Lilith Ivory wonders btw if someone who has no forum account is able to get a transcript when following those links
[12:33] Rosie Gray: they cannot, Lilith
[12:33] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane): I think so
[12:33] Lyubov (20180414): good point Lilith...i would assume they might see only very recent posts...
[12:33] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane): oh not?
[12:33] Lilith Ivory nods to Rosie, having guessed so
[12:34] Rosie Gray: you have to be logged in to the forums to see anything but the most recent postings
[12:34] Tanoujin Milestone: yes, it is very restrictive towrds non-members
[12:34] Tanoujin Milestone: i wonder why
[12:34] Tanoujin Milestone: but that is another topic
[12:34] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane): I think we can encourage citizens to least register for the forums
[12:35] Lyubov (20180414): Lilith, would you have a concern about compliance with the Constitutional requirement for a Journal, if it is behind a Forum that requires an account?
[12:35] Tanoujin Milestone: people of the world, look to this town, lol
[12:35] Lilith Ivory: I am fine the way it is. jUst wanted to bring this fact in mind
[12:36] Lyubov (20180414): A motion....
[12:37] Lyubov (20180414): I motion that the RA Archivist update the RA page on Portal, https://cdsdemocracy.org/the-representative-assembly/?? to state that the RA Announcements board on the Forum, http://forums.slcds.info/viewforum.php?f=2?? is the Journal. This is in compliance with the Constitutional requirement for an RA Journal of its proceedings, Article I, Section 5 https://cdsdemocracy.org/cds-constitution/
[12:37] Tanoujin Milestone: Motion to update RA page on Portal, https://cdsdemocracy.org/the-representative-assembly/?? to state that the RA Announcements board on the Forum, http://forums.slcds.info/viewforum.php?f=2?? is the Journal
[12:37] Lyubov (20180414): I withdraw my motion
[12:37] Rosie Gray: second Tan's motion
[12:38] Lyubov (20180414): And i second Tan's motion
[12:38] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you Rosie and Tan
[12:38] Lyubov (20180414): Any further discussion before we vote?
[12:38] Tanoujin Milestone: Richie, you can do that, right?
[12:38] Richie Deschanel: i will speak to Rosie
[12:38] Tanoujin Milestone: cool, ty in advance
[12:39] Richie Deschanel: she said she would help with the portal - show me what to do
[12:39] Rosie Gray: certainly
[12:39] Richie Deschanel: smiles
[12:39] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you Rosie and Richie
[12:39] Lyubov (20180414): Any other concerns?
[12:39] Lyubov (20180414): I hear none at this time.
[12:39] Lyubov (20180414): Please vote to update RA page on Portal, https://cdsdemocracy.org/the-representative-assembly/?? to state that the RA Announcements board on the Forum, http://forums.slcds.info/viewforum.php?f=2?? is the Journal
[12:40] Lyubov (20180414): Aye
[12:40] Rosie Gray: aye
[12:40] Tanoujin Milestone: aye
[12:40] Richie Deschanel: aye
[12:40] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane): aye
[12:40] Lyubov (20180414): Thank you, the motion carries.
[12:40] Lyubov (20180414): Next, 7.2 NL 4-6 Financial Reserves Act - update archaic language, text posted at http://forums.slcds.info/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=9045
[12:40] Tanoujin Milestone: now that it is done i see the job get much easier
[12:40] Tanoujin Milestone: ha, this one....
[12:41] Lyubov (20180414): Oh yes! I think you Tan and Rosie started This One
[12:41] Tanoujin Milestone: and I think it was you, lol
[12:41] Lyubov (20180414): The proposal is to simply update "City" to "CDS".
[12:41] Rosie Gray: lol
[12:42] Richie Deschanel: makes sense
[12:42] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane) nods
[12:42] Lyubov (20180414): The 31st RA agreed to the new language and then posted to the Forum for public comment before a final vote. As a result of public comments and other additional financial concerns, a final vote never occurred.
[12:43] Tanoujin Milestone: let me remind you of sudane's remark that a simple update of wording would not help much in this case
[12:43] Tanoujin Milestone: but I will not block an update
[12:43] Tanoujin Milestone: we can return to it any time
[12:43] Rosie Gray: I think the idea was just to make the current idea of the law consistent in language
[12:44] Lyubov (20180414): Yes, this is the consensus Tan. The main concerns relate to other issues I believe, which would involve the Estate Owner Act and Treasuer Act
[12:44] Kyoko Furse-Barzane (samara.barzane) nods
[12:44] Tanoujin Milestone: okay, with me
[12:44] Tanoujin Milestone: yes, that i true. It is a thick board to drill
[12:44] Lyubov (20180414): Which, we might be able to tackle those issues in later RA meetings
[12:44] Tanoujin Milestone: I agree
[12:45] Lyubov (20180414): Rosie, as this text was approved by the previous RA, pending a final vote...
[12:46] Lyubov (20180414): Are we able to take that final vote now to approve, or must this RA first approve the draft language?
[12:46] Rosie Gray: we can take the final vote now
[12:46] Rosie Gray: it's been posted for public review for a long time
[12:46] Lilith Ivory nods
[12:47] Lyubov (20180414): for the record, this is the text:
[12:47] Lyubov (20180414): NL 4-6 Financial Reserves Act
The Confederation of Democratic Simulators (CDS) shall move 1 month’s tier in USD to a separate line item (reserve account), and make those funds unavailable for other use.
Funds in the account shall be disbursed at the discretion of the RA to pay recurring expenses in the event of a sudden and unexpected drop in $USD income.
CDS shall augment this account as funds are available until it contains enough funds to pay all recurring CDS expenses for a period of two months absent other income.
[12:48] Lyubov (20180414): I motion that we vote to approve the updated text for NL 4-6, as posted to the Forum discussion at http://forums.slcds.info/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=9045
