A call for an internet age speaker
,----[ Quote ]
| If this sounds like a good idea to you, you could do far worse than get
| involved. The software to make an online democracy possible needs writing and
| testing — and of course it should be open source. It needs people to
| encourage its use. The internet has made many other aspects of life easier
| and more efficient. Why shouldn't it do the same for politics?

Government Users Start Looking Under Linux Hood

| If you are a local government IT official in the U.S. today, it’s likely
| easier for you to pick up a phone and get easy, quick answers from
| proprietary software vendors to find technology products to fill your needs,
| rather than having to manually sort through the sometimes fragmented world of
| open source projects to find a good fit.
