I've now signed both.  Don't know what the number of signatures is now, but all Rootschatters need to sign or it will be ignored.

Correction, even if we do all sign, it will still be ignored

I have signed but the government is trying to cut back on expenditure and also has a horrid record at handling computer systems. :'(
