My group's faction still isn't present so I suppose it may not be all of the batch 2 groups.
Ben:
I think it took about 5-7 days for me to hear back. It all depends on how busy Zac and crew are. Everything has to be done manually. If you just sent an email to the groups address, try sending him a PM too just to be thorough.
Will we ever be able to "pledge" to our minor faction? As in under a powerplay pledge name have a pledge to your faction, like the npc's have?

Minor faction cannot become a Power (yet).
I meant can we pledge to a minor faction without it having to be a powerplay faction. Our group has no direct intent of becoming a powerplay faction but we would like to have our groups name tags. Just like the npc's have.

No, that's not possible at the moment AFAIK.
will that ever be possible?
It just seems rather pointless. It amount to nothing more than flavor text. It wouldn't truly be a player faction at all.
It introduces a new RP element.

For now. Who's to say what may come later.

I liked the idea of this when it was proposed, and I like the idea of it still. It adds an RP element to the game, where your group can become an actual part of the Elite universe (a permanent presence... if you can survive 
). I'm actually thinking about adding my group at a later time (if its something they want to do).

It seems that we experinced a bug in LFT 37 - our minor faction did become the controlling faction at it's introduction into the system, but it started at 6% influence, so it soon got embroiled in a civil war with the previous controlling minor faction.
This seemed a bit odd, as both minor factions were democracies, but even more odd was it that even though our i minor faction influence kept rising throughout the civil war, indicating that we were collecting the most combat bonds, when the civil war ended, the other minor faction gained control of star port and system ...
Can we hope for a correction of the results of this bug? Namely correcting the influence level of the minor factions back to Nov.20th level and giving back control of the controlling station to the player minor faction?

Happens all the time. Our feudal faction just won an election too.
So complex ! ! Why cant we just use the option "choose minor faction" in the right panel, (like in the conflict zone we can localy) and be considered as a member of this faction by the game for a long timer period without possibility of change before timer is expired?
Why can we already choose a powerplay faction, but not a minor one ?? its not logical.
if we are a federal player, we should not be able to join an empire minor faction, and vice-versa same thing for imperial and alliance players.
