In the past I've sometimes thought it would be good to put legislation under version control. Maybe mercurial or bazaar or even git :) Than you could tag releases that get passed; run diffs between older versions; new acts that amend existing acts would hold these changes as diff patches. It'd be crazy awesome. :) -- Daniel Bush http://blog.web17.com.au -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
