  Colin,
   we operate with other groups via liaison relationships.  I would 
suggest that you be our eGov liaison.

We definitely can benefit from eGov use cases.

Regards,
Anil

We've had an  Item on the work plan all year to establish a Discussion Forum but that hasn't come to anything yet and I do wonder now whether that is the right thing for us to be doing.  I've just been pointed to this article and related material which gives a good overview of where things are at and who's doing what.  The question is in my mind is, given all this activity where can we add value or fill in some missing bits?  I would welcome your views and let's have a discussion about it on next week's SC call.
