For this post, we had a couple of applicants and this time, I decided that hiring two, as this seemed to work well for many reasons was the best option
So, congratulations to Elanda Tonil and Cattrin al'Modrah
Sorry, no time frame yet.
As a lot of the MM has to do with the Cordomora (and other parts to do with the Keeper), some of it will likely wait till we have some new person in that position - I want to be able to confirm with them if we make any major changes that what we saying is still correct...
Due to real life commitments, Stasia has had to step down from this role
This is a stilla new position, so there is not yet any firm expectations of how many hours it is likely to take, but it will likely be variable, according to how often changes in policy require changes in the Membership...

It is interesting how people often have really strong but different opinions on characters. I can’t stand Elayne, she is my second least favorite character (my least has yet to arrive, and my contempt for Elayne fades into mere dislike in comparison to my burning hatred for this character) and...
It explains why the Aiel avoid the Tua'athon so much, and where their contempt for them came from, but as with the sword, most modern Aiel have no idea
There are still a few things we don't see the beginning of - such as reverence for Blacksmiths, the splitting into septs or the begginings of...
