Oops. Yes, I did indeed. Sorry about that, and thanks for catching the

Did you mean that it _doesn't_ limit their ability to do it?

I'd say it shouldn't need to be a separate section at all. If the
comment is unavailing, then sure, tack on an sentence at
Yes, I am convinced that you are absolutely right. I guess nobody has any

Could you elabourate? Even if we should pretend zombies are assets, it's
not always true that an asset's owner CAN transfer it. E.g. if I had blots
and auctioned them off, I don't think anything would allow me to transfer
them to the winner of the auction.

[As with most things, I have no idea if this has been tried or suggested

Seeing the recent issue with the Ritual and how no individual person
could be assigned blame for the failure got me wondering if it would be
a viable to instead assign Blots to Agora as a whole for violations suc
Unlike the argument about blogs, this argument stretches annoying textual
ism beyond its breaking point. To transfer in this context means to change
from the ownership of one entity to anothwr. So the auctioneer CAN transfer
the switch: from agora to the auction winners.

Warning: I don't think paying Agora for one's prize will cause that
zombie's Master switch to be flipped to the payer, and I plan to call a
CFJ about it once someone tries to claim their zombie (easier to phrase
the CFJ after that's happened).

Well, most simple cases shouldn't have any comments submitted, and in
that case my design would
Requiring notice and comment would make it a bit more complicated and
time-consuming to judge a CFJ, which might not make sense for simple
ones. How about this:
* The judge assigned to a CFJ CAN publish a draft judgement, and is
ENCOURAGED to do so for difficult cases.
* Publishing a draft judgemen
Good find! Yes, it is. That proposal would have accidentally required that
the report only be counted if it fulfilled all of the weekly or monthly
duties of an office; this phrasing avoids that problem.

Is this substantially different in any way from Proposal 8162 [0], which
failed by a large margin [1]? (Found it while I was looking through past
proposals, as one does). The circumstances probably are different now,
though.

Words take their ordinary meaning when not defined by the rules. Coins are
