Constitutional convention blog now live

---------UPDATE---------
Parliament's constitutional arrangements committee has issued it's report. Roundly bagged by all and sundry as a great big zero, I will comment on it once I have read it all. Reports also from: No Right Turn & Holden Republic. Good work, those gentlemen.

The site for the constitutional convention is now up and running. All contributions welcome. They should be brief and to the point. Please make sure your comments are anon. or else they will be deleted. This is to allow participants to discuss the issues rather than each other.

It's a bold new experiment in on-line participatory democracy and anything in the current agenda can be discussed including the timeline and format etc. as well as the listed suggestions for discussion points. Whilst I intend to moderate it to start with I hope that can be circulated to others in time. We'll see how it goes.

If you have ever thought "that ought to be in the constitution" then now is the time to put it on the agenda. If you've had thoughts about ways in which these issues should be discussed then now is the time to put it on the agenda. To assist in the debate a list of constitutions are available on the side bar (The Pacific and Europe are complete, Americas partially complete, Africa and Asia needing more work at this stage).

Thank you in advance for your thoughtful contributions. I have no idea where it will end up, but the next agenda is due out on 31 August and will include material from your comments put into a logical format.
