For those of you who don't know, Minnesota E-Democracy is
Minneapolis-Issues' sponsoring organization. The Minneapolis folks are
planning to do a similar event later this year, but since you are all
members of Minnesota E-Democracy by participating on this list, you are more
than welcome to celebrate! It will give you good insights into what other
city-oriented Minnesota E-Dem lists are doing, and reach across our
municipal boundaries. --- David Brauer, list manager
