CommunicationSystems

Communication is essential to this project. Developing and implementing unique, modern methods will dramatically further our goals. Below are some ideas on this topic. Feel free to comment on the [discussion page].

Community Discussion:

• story submissions on main site inviting discussion on an issue
• Consider.it is a powerful system for discussion on specific issues examaming pros and cons (try a Demo) (drag and drop "pros" and "cons" into your "opinion")
  • (uses JavaScript, but they are looking for organizations to pilot with)

Community Polling:

• devotee
• Electoral Reform Services "is the UK's leading independent supplier of ballot and election services"
• SurveyMonkey (3rd party)
• slaschcode pollbooth rework (stderr was looking into tying slash with devotee)

Staff Communication:

• Mailing list
• Trac
• redmine (a Trac fork using Ruby on Rails)
• InterTwinkles
  • Intertwinkles uses JavaScript but looks incredibly powerful
• Use slashcode
