[DISCUSSION] Separate Management of MATT-DUCK from COA
#1

I think it's pretty clear that the MATT-DUCK Law Archive is in a state of utter stagnancy, not having been updated in a good while. While current blame for that does indeed fall on the Chair of the Assembly, I wonder if it may be pertinent to separate the COA's powers a bit so as to ease the tedious workload.

Something we had in Spiritus a constitution or two ago was an Archivist of the Regional Assembly, which was an appointed position specifically made for managing and keeping the law library up to date. We created a special account called Archivist of the Regional Assembly (which can be named whatever here), had that account hold the moderation permissions, and would have all laws, updates, etc posted from that account so there was one account which managed all the things in the library.

By having it as an appointed position, we could usually always find someone who was interested in managing and updating our laws, and there was always the ability to quickly nominate a new individual should the one at-present fail. If I recall correctly, it was an appointed position that just needed simply majority approval from our assembly to appoint the individual to. Then you'd just give them the account password, have them change it for the duration of their term, and have them manage it.

I think such an appointed position could be really useful for us moving forward, as it's pretty clear that we need to do something about the lack of management in MATT-DUCK and perhaps having an appointed Archivist, thus avoiding the needless bureaucracy and pressure of an election for that position, would allow for a better managed library moving forward.

Thoughts?
