Hello everyone. Just a short announcement of what the SA staff is actually up to, and why sitting faculty should start getting nervous (it’s because of me!).

Riku Keibatsu has finished his term as Magistrate, completing the 180 days of his term. During this time he’s been extremely helpful to us, as without his efforts the Audit would probably still not be done. So everyone give three cheers to Riku. Thank you for all you’ve done man!

Normally this would be where I announce that Farrin wants a new minion, I mean staff member. However last time we ran applications we had a very, very, good application come in from a familiar source. It wasn’t as good as Celevon’s, who is already proving himself as our other Magistrate, but it was definitely good enough to make us consider him up front this time. We do not believe that we’ll receive an application that could top his this time, so for the next six months we would like to welcome Mateus Kelborn back into the warm embrace of the SA’s slavemaster (again, me!).

Finally, a little progress report on how we are doing. With the audit closed off and locked away for at least another year (yay!), we can now focus on Farrin’s pet project: The Prerequisites and Reorganization. I’m calling this one PR for short. We need all the PR we’re gonna get! No doubt that Farrin will detail more of this in his own report, but suffice to say that we’ve started the preliminary work needed to complete the PR. We’re aiming for the end of Q1 to have this done, which should revamp most of how the SA looks and changes a few ways in which it functions too.

That’s all for now, remember to thank Riku for all his hard work, and say welcome back to Mirus/Mateus.

As always, do the thing Farrin wants you to do when you find mistakes: Tell him! (Not me, him. No no, get that away from me! AAARGH!)
