No sweat it was the sum of trying to do anything with out-of-date info
that was being a pain, not the particular CoE!

Good point. I was doing it temporarily for two reasons, but now that I
think about it they aren't great reasons.
* I wanted to be polite by not booting the existing officeholders, but
I guess it's easy enough for the officeholders to reclaim them if they
wan.
* I'm avoiding responsibilities. But as you say, I can do that by resigning.

You probably shouldn’t be temporarily deputizing (as in, you should be
doing it normally). The point of that was to stop people from uncessarily
evicting current office holders, but these offices are vacant or
essentially so anyway. If you can’t keep up with the office, you can always
drop it when you want to.

Thanks for your hard work. I'm optimistic that things will gradually
get back on track if the ratio of (reports published and other actions
that clarify the state of the game) to (actions that raise questions)
stays reasonably high for a while.

And sorry, in hindsight it probably would have been more productive
for me to just let your resolution of the proposals self-ratify.

Unofficial claims of error about voting strength, sent to the
discussion list since I don't think they affect anything but it's good
to keep track:

* Corona has 8 blots, so eir voting strength is 2.

* If my CoE about the Prime Minister election is correct, then G's
voting strength is 3, not 4.
