*** Democracies Online Newswire - http://www.e-democracy.org/do *** As far as I can tell the Web-based Education Commission <http://www.webcommission.org> is one of the first U.S. Congressionally created commissions to accept "e-testimony." The E-Commerce Advisory group did some similar online efforts to post and share submitted documents. This is a great step toward Internet-enabling representative democracy or in this case Internet enabling the advisory commission process for representative democracy.
