Greetings Members of the 5th Cabinet, The cabinet discussion has fallen silent recently, and I hope that this slightly delayed 3rd cabinet meeting will open up some more cabinet discussion. The last cabinet meeting has been largely concerned with referendums and votes, so I would like to move on from that for now to focus on other issues. However, everyone should continue to come up with ideas for Amendment #39, and if you have any votes and amendments to propose, feel free to do so. Items for the entire Cabinet to address: 1. Peace Treaty with The Internationale The possibility of restarting these talks is returning, and I would like there to be significant discussion over the future of these talks. I have been communicating with some of you about the treaty via telegram, so feel free to share those ideas in the Internationale forum discussion. 2. Complete commendation for Grolsch I would like this taken care of soon because nothing has been done with this for 3 months. We need to decide who will be writing this commendation. 3. Prepared ministerial statements workshop (ongoing project) Now that the auto-telegram system is being implemented, it would be good to look at creating a more standard set of telegrams and statements to be sent out automatically. 4. Proposed back up Secretary-General and President in the case of inactivity (Grobladonia) 5. PF and CR requirements amendment (Currently Being written by Suceavija) There definitely needs to be more discussion over this. 6. Review jobs offered in the 'Help Wanted' subforum (if you want an assistant for your ministry, post the job in the subforum) Try to apply this constructive criticism to your cabinet position. 8. Discuss the possible implementation of the API telegram system This could actually be a good recruitment technique if we could somehow create a CR and PF filter. 8. Revitalization of the Newspaper The newspaper has been very silent for a long time except for Terlibe's article a few days ago. I would like more articles to be written for newspaper just to use it more often. This is not really a priority at the moment, but I just want Solidarity to be used more often. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Items for individual ministries to address: Secretary General (SG): 1. Determine if appropriate to declassify previous closed-door Cabinet meeting notes --It would be better to hold off on releasing these until TI treaty is either abandoned or completed. 2. Create Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) section in 'Introduction' forum, edit 'About the Democratic Socialist Assembly' to include link to FAQ's. --I am currently working on a few of these, and you can come up with your own ideas to add. This can be discussed through telegram. 3. Make sure everything is updated (Amendments, Charter nations, etc.) 4. Actively participate in the discussion over the future of the Internationale treaty. Minister of Foreign Affairs (MFA): 1. Make embassy recommendations to P/WAD --Secular Alliance 2. Prepare interregional intelligence report for CAB --Interregional partners/allies --Interregional adversaries --Other regions of interest, if any 3. Actively participate in the discussion over the future of the Internationale treaty. Minister of Justice/Head of Supreme Court (MoJ): 1. Audit region for Civil Rights (CR), Political Freedoms (PF), and National Categories (NC) compliance 2. Make recommendations to P/WAD for nations to eject, if any --Like I stated before, I would like to eject as few nations as possible until Charter Amendment #39 is completed, but report all of the violators anyway. Minister of Immigration/Regional Promotion (MIRP): 1. Try to add filters/improve the API as much as you can 2. Verify if/when interregional leftist fair is being held 3. Look into the possibility of creating an auto-message for welcoming telegrams-->discuss with Grobladonia --The only problem I can think of with this is that nations that just briefly left will be welcomed all over again, which may seem strange. Minister of Domestic Affairs (MDA): 1. Continue coming up with new debate ideas. 2. Look into the possibility of creating an auto-message for welcoming telegrams-->discuss with Gervase --The only problem I can think of with this is that nations that just briefly left will be welcomed all over again, which may seem strange. 3. Possibly start nominations for a new contest. 4. Update all of the information in the NS Wiki. --There should not be too much to change. Mainly population and a few other minor details. Minister of Cartography (MoC): 1. Verify all nations on map are: --Existing --Reside in the region (domestic puppets okay, too) 2. Add nations from map opt-in subforum who request placement on map 3. Essentially just keep the map current and updated Edited by Haltari, 23 May 2013, 04:17.

1 - All nations represented in the map are existing and reside in the region, with the exception of Der Nordland, who has been removed from the newest version of the map which I've sent to the WAD. However, I believe that it is important to say that there are 4 nations who haven't logged in for a long time: Toka313 (19 days), The Great Southern Continent (21), The Sooners (22) and Pisces Meridian (10). 2 - All nations requesting placement have been answered. 3 - OK |

Look into the possibility of creating an auto-message for welcoming telegrams-->discuss with Grobladonia --The only problem I can think of with this is that nations that just briefly left will be welcomed all over again, which may seem strange. 1. Auralia is apparently in the process of creating a new version of the auto-telegram tool as of a message dated one week ago, so we might want to wait until that comes out to see if it supports filtering. Otherwise, someone who's technically inclined might try to do it through the source code, which is publicly available. 2. Still haven't heard from my counterparts on this one, but I'll check with them again. 3. This is definitely possible with a little effort. One major consideration is that to keep it running all the time, you either have to have the script running on a third-party server or have your home PC running the auto-telegram software all the time (I do the latter for recruitment). But we can talk. |

@New Andureo Definitely wait until they CTE before taking them off. However, if they do CTE that would free up a lot of space. @Gervase Just tell me as soon as you can about Auralia's new telegram system. Regarding the leftist fair, one has not happened for a long time, including my entire two terms as MIRP, so I doubt it will be happening anytime soon. |

By the way, the MIRP now has a dedicated email address (along with a Google Docs account and so on): mirp.dsa@gmail.com |

Good idea Gervase. I am concerned about our recent Cabinet Evaluation Pole. It seems many people (perhaps other Cabinet Members) do not think some of us are doing a good job. I think, with the exception of Herrebrughs inactivity (at least in public), I think the rest of us are doing a fine job. |

I agree with Terlibe. Perhaps we are doing something wrong. I suggest that we encourage the rest of the Congress to express their complaints, suggestions, proposals, etc. in the "Speaker's Corner" forum. That's what it's there for. @Haltari: I'm just keeping an eye on them

I'm especially surprised that New Andureo got an 'okay' rating. I thought he has done a great job and renovating and adding on to the map. Perhaps people underestimate how much work that is. |

It is indeed a lot of work, but perhaps some nations do not like the new formats. I like the idea of the poll, but the problem is that it only lets you know if you are doing wrong, but you don't know what you are doing wrong. That is why we'd better create a topic or something in the Speaker's Corner so that Congress members are able to express their suggestions. |

I actually think the poll is going very well because almost all of the cabinet members are mostly in the top two categories. However, I would like the members of Congress to provide some more constructive criticism, and I think they should do that under the poll instead of the "Speaker's Corner" to keep everything in one place. In general, I think that most nations, don't realize how much time each of these positions entail. |
