know if you have questions).
4. A Power Point presentation of the original Community Voices proposal. http://onlinedemocracy.winona.org/smi/CommunityVoices.htm (note: this focuses on education issues as the topic, but it was later decided by the steering committee to have "alcohol use in Winona" be the topic)

7. Information about "Knowledge Forum" a visual discussion tool we experimented with early on in W.O.D. and hoped would help provide a good structure for community discussion and knowledge creation: http://onlinedemocracy.winona.org/Knowledge_Forum/knowledge_forum.html
