Hi Stef,

Welcome back!

WriteToThem is not one of the projects that has been refactored and
documented for redeloyment, unlike Alaveteli and FixMyStreet, which is
why you won't find much about the install process.

The good news is that our friends at Ciudadano Inteligente in Chile
are building a Poplus Component called WriteIt, explicitly to fill the
gap for a modern, customisable, redeployable tool in the tradition of
WriteToThem and FaxYourMP. I think they'll be delighted to have an
early customer with your track record.

The mailing list for this is the Poplus list, and you should post your
request for help there:
https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/poplus

In future, when we work with people who want 'WriteToThem' style
functionality on international sites we're involved with, we'll be
using WriteIt, not WriteToThem to deliver it.

The goal of Poplus is to be an international community of different
civic hacking groups that build interoperable components that make it
quicker and less expensive to build new sites that are about citizens
exerting power. In short, Poplus is all about helping people out who
are in your situation, right now.

all the best,

Tom
