Incidentally, I don't like these new dependent action rules; all the
Agoran decision cruft makes them much more heavyweight than they
really have any need to be. When are we ever going to use a dependent
action with a majority index other than one?
When we think of something important enough.
For reference, here are all the current uses of Agoran consent:
* Install an officer
* Deregister a redundant partnership
* Declare a protectorate (Ambassador only)
and With Support:
* Change an ordinary proposal's AI to 2 (2 support)
* Appeal a judgement (2 support)
* Grant/revoke Patent Title of Bard (2 support, or a Bard
with 1 Bard support)
and Without Objection:
* Make a player inactive
* Change a forum's publicity (Registrar only)
* Ratify part of a report
Also, as long as I'm looking at it, "less than or equal to" in
R955(d)(3) should probably just be "less than", since the vote
collector implicitly counts as 1 support.
This should be handled by amending R1729(d) so that the vote
collector is not auto-disqualified in this case. (Consider the
IADoP's duty to attempt to change officers; e should be free to
object to eir own attempt. Unless e is ineligible for other
reasons, e.g. the current IADoP is a partnership.)
