<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks Craig,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I can only point out that Kate will be presenting a Lot of
recommendations coming out of her public sphere feedback, to Kim Carr, (in Dec
I think). E.g.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><a

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Nic. over at the gov2 taskforce is doing the same to
Lindsay Tanner, from an “inside the public service” perspective. (
i think about the same time)<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>And there will be more meetings between COAG and a number of
inter-agency committees (can’t remember them all) to consider the
federal/state collaboration in this space. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>It just seems that a petition would be another, more
definite, way for the government to get to the heart of opening gov databases,
and using them as education resources. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Kate’s doing her best at the Senate Committee for the
NBN. But that’s to do with the infrastructure. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I think you’ll find, if you put a wikipetition up and
invited people to sign it, she’d be amongst the first to sign.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>And it would give the petitions committee some idea of how
they could use a wiki to go electronic.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>regards<o:p></o:p></p>
