The E-democracy Best Practices work is now in progress: http://dowire.org/bp The 30+ members of the E-democracy Best Practices Leadership Team now have 75 potential "Brief" topics to consider. The Briefs will focus on online features (at least 15 will be chosen) while the full case studies will focus on projects. * Submit Innovative E-democracy Projects Are you involved or aware of an e-democracy project with lessons to share? If so, submit information about the project via our web form: http://dowire.org/submit This collection of 8+ international case studies (must come from outside UK) will likely be among the most read case studies to date. Help projects that deserve credit receive the attention they deserve. Accepted case studies may be hosted by diverse organizations and all levels of government, but those pursued by this effort will need to be relevant local government and governance. * Want to be a Lead Editor on a Brief or Case Study? Perhaps Simply Offer Comments? Join our invite-only team by applying here <http://dowire.org/submit> or visit our Briefs List <http://www.dowire.org/wiki/index.php/Briefs_List> and simply press the "Discussion" option to add you comments. Very simple. Very Easy. Very Open. Two-page Briefs will need to be completed in final draft format by January 7. Case Studies have until February 7 to be completed. Accepted Briefs and Case Studies are eligible for honorariums if they meet our requirements. Please mention this in you e-mail newsletters, blogs, e-lists, and other places online. Forward appropriately and actively. Sincerely, Steven Clift http://dowire.org ^ ^ ^ ^ Steven L.
