> Hi,

>
> Since my background is somewhere around democracy, civic society technology

> am convinced, that Plone rocks;)

> What are the essentials tools/products for NGO's democracy projects under
> Plone?
> It is quite obvious, that Megaphone is deeply needed in many countries to
> get in touch with representatives, and collective.amberjack offers a rare
> solutions for helping less advance users to navigate and make things under
> the site.
> Delib's Opinion Suite (where the hell it is on Plone?)  works both for local
> admin and ngo level.

> What else do you recommend?
>
> We have started to work on NGO and CEE regional focus on Co-activate, by
> opening a list and trying to gather some cooperation after the Budapest
> conference,
> We welcome all of you to work together, share knowledge and find the next
> generation solutions.
