The intent of my posting about electronic democracy was about 
participation in decision-making, not just voting. Transparency of the 
policy process, along with responsiveness, is probably more important 
than a new technology for voting. 

PS Is anyone driving to Melbourne in the next few days? I'm meant to be 
delivering my paper for the AUUG conference, but missed the cheap air 
fare. If the AUUG papers are up on the Web by now, some of you discussing 
electronic democracy may be interested in my paper about the use of IT in 
government. It's called 'Open Systems vs Open Communications'. I'd be 
interested in any feedback. 
Thanks,
