considering that gallia as a house never had other houses to spy on, I'd look at gallic intelligence agencies as very underdeveloped.
in fact, i've imagined it mostly as gj's doing the job and gallia simply purchasing all the relevant information they can get from freelancers and other groups, as their focus seem to be on a heavy machinery of war to overpower anyone standing in their way.
kusari, liberty, rheinland and bretonia all had agencies for a long time, with - especially in the case of liberty - a lot of funds.
so for an intellingence group, what I'd like to see the most would be a group of gaul freelancers doing jobs here and there while covertly collecting intel and supplying GRN with it.

That's something of a misquote, I would say. Anyhow.
I personally think it's not preferable to have a whole bunch of independent, rivaling ONI-like factions. Having them all individually try and achieve their goals or even end up working against eachother for one reason or another seems inevitable, and a little silly.
It's mainly awkward in roleplay. Why would Gallia's intelligence service be so splintered and inefficient?
I understand GRN|ONI- hasn't been much of a thing. I'm not entirely against competition either. But three, to me, is too much. Especially if the three have zero coordination between them which will inevitably lead to silly conflicts of interest which shouldn't occur between factions that are supposed to work with one another.
For now, GRN|ONI- is undergoing something of a redesign and reboot, so we'll see where all this goes.

firs:Three? you dont mean *****'s faction?
second:Well, I am gonna go for partial cooperation. I feel skype can be used to discuss
third:yeah, accepted, my bad. misquote corrected.
Wait didn't the Gallic Junkers kinda do the Intelligence job in the earlier days? I'd go for Gallic Junkers, since they were the once that also got intel about the Houses Jumpgates and stuff in Sirius.
