[DMCA_Discuss] Global Repository for Government Comments

[Anatoly Volynets]

I like the idea. I only doubt, it may be supported by governments. The only 
entity, which is really interested in such repository is people.
The Repository in order to be effective should provide sophisticated system 
of texts, references, analysis, arguments, dialogues, history, statistics, + 
voting and petitioning tools + search engine. It's a big project.
