Hello, Imperials.

I returned from leave last Friday after successfully completing US Army Airborne School. I have since been catching up on my Emperor's Hammer duties, and am finally back in the swing of things.

All pending requests have been processed. If you submitted a request while I was gone that has not been completed, please resubmit it. It is possible that a couple slipped through the cracks when Robert Dura resigned as IO, as he had been covering my duties during my absence.

I'll give more updates about specific projects in next week's report.

On a final note, I am proud to have recently received my 7th Echelon Order of the Vanguard for seven years of EH service. I look forward to continued service to the membership in the future!

IRC MEETINGS

The Emperor's Hammer conducts an online Internet Relay Chat meeting every Saturday at 1200 hours (12PM) Eastern Time. Command officers from around the fleet issue reports in a moderated format regarding their respective areas of service. General member discussion and trivia follows. For more information, please see http://www.emperorshammer.net/meetings.asp.

TASKS PROGRESSION

1. Expanded Reports/Meetings archive
Report automation for all command staff, advisors, and subgroup commanders will be handled with the emperorshammer.org automation project.

2. Communications reviews/articles
Initial planning for this is underway, most likely as a joint COMM/IO/SO project.

3. Expand content on the Communications Office site, look into including news about undernet, IRC, etc.
No progress yet.

4. Workable, viable Medal of Communication system
A joint proposal between OPS and myself has been submitted to the FC and XO. The FC suggested a minor change, which has been made and submitted. Waiting for final approval.

5. Expansion of trivia system, more regular trivia events
Several members have inquired about writing questions, and I have provided them with the trivia file format. No other progress at this time.

6. Addition of other bot features
No bot features changed since May; dasb0t may still be operating improperly, and requires a rebuild.

7. Coordinate with Internet and Executive Offices in porting ELS system to ASP
No progress yet.
