I should really start working on usability issues.  Maybe we can make
a deal? :-) All I need is to sustain a few real-life polls, alive and
kicking.  I mean polls like:

G/p/owdo
http://metagovernment.org/pipermail/start_metagovernment.org/2010-July/thread.html#3001

BC/p/ginger
http://rabble.ca/babble/western-provinces/possible-strategy-ginger-group-bc-new-democrats

And maybe Tor/p/sw14t (if it can be brought back to life)
http://rabble.ca/babble/central-canada/why-school-board-elections-are-important

As long as we have drafting/discussion happening on a daily basis in
those threads (or wherever), I could probably sink the rest of my time
into tackling the worst of the usability issues.  (We have some big
barriers to entry, for example.)  If I did that, would you guys help
keep those polling threads alive?

I thought public domain would be best, at least for the primary use
case of law and public policy/plans.  If it becomes a problem for some
areas/polls, we could look at solutions.  (Maybe area/poll specific
licences?)
