Lawbook

Two questions ... is it the job of the Praetor to update the Lawbook when a law is passed (because he hadn't done the economic changes, I just did them myself).

And the Lawbook refers to "Minister of Trade" a lot, and only Treasury once (from the new bill). Should we go through the lawbook and change all the now defunct ministerial references?

I'd hold off on that one.

Fair enough. Answer to question 1 though?

I would say no to that one. The work that takes is simply not worth it, and it only takes a conservative Kaiser for us to have to edit the LB again. I would prefer neutral wording, like saying "the ministry in charge of the economy" instead of the specific ministry name, but as long as the language is clear, no edit should be needed. For example, there are still some references in the laws to the Provost, but we all understand that they now refer to the Arbiter.

Fine. But the consultation better including yelling at Jonas if he doesn't do his job again (I can't, he's my Dutch :worship )

I think a nudge or two could be included in the future if he doesn't.

It's on my to-do-list (editing the wiki).
