Subject: Re: SFC/DIP: Ramesar Welcome Reception

"I understand your surprise, Admiral.  We are, for all intents and purposes, 
a new race to this part of the galaxy.   However, the best way to learn 
about our neighbors, and the  current challenges facing this part of space, 
is to actively seek  out and become acquainted with ones neighbors.  The 
Council  seemed like the perfect opportunity to do just that.  If  fortunate 
enough to be admitted to the Council, it is our hope to  have our official 
representative serve as the official point of  contact between all peoples.  
  Thus eliminating the need to  establish so many embassies abroad."

Dai'Cou  had been standing with the main group and was sipping a glass of  
Romulan ale.  "Most of us double as the official representatives for our 
government here on Earth, but you may find that you will  still have to open 
embassies elsewhere at some point.  The  members of the Council may be 
important to their governments but  they cannot be the sole voice of their 
government since they are  not the ruling body."

"Perhaps. What is entailed in the  application process for the Council?" 
Marconis answered his Aqualish host.

This was not a question that Dai'Cou had hoped would come up.   From his 
understanding of things, no one had ever been questioned in their  request 
to join the Council.  He had also not been at the meeting when the  Council 
reviewed the request by the Ramesar to join.  There must have been  some 
reason to do so, but he did not know the specifics.  That did not mean  that 
he would not try and answer the question.  "I believe that the  application 
is fairly simple.  The primary need is to establish that the  representative 
is sent by the legal government ruling over the citizens of the  applicant.  
There are some other small details involved, but it is more a  formality 
than anything else."

"The application is not meant to make the Council a group of elite members.  
The Council's goal is to create ties between members to prevent warfare.  
Enlarging membership is in the best interest of all involved," added Koomah.

"How many applications has the Council received since it's formation, and how 
many of them have been approved?"

It was clear by the questioning that Marconis was very much interested in the 
application and it's formal process.
