Hi all,

I've often commented how there's a deep and unfortunate gap in the EU
between the genuinely popular democracy and transparency sites like
www.stemwijzer.nl (millions of users) www.ipp.ro (huge success at
repeatedly suing their parliament for publication of data) and the
lavishly EU funded projects that theoretically work in the same sort
of fields, but which nobody ever seems to have heard of.

Anyway, today I see that the strange EU-bureaucrat approved shadow
world has just published it's awards short list, or at least a short
list for what seem to be government-run projects (which I admit isn't
quite the same as third parties). I thought you might all care to see
what is 'officially' of note in the sector of "eGovernment empowering
citizens":

I'm not saying there's nothing of value there, don't get me wrong - I
hope there's some gems we can be 'inspired' by. But I don't actually
recognise anything...

As always, very grateful for anyone to take a rummage and share their
findings with the 400-odd other people on this list!

best,

Tom
