Our goals are:
Making all Government generated public documentation available on the web to citizens. This includes but not limited to legislation, rules & regulations, budgetary information, and websites. If it is legally public it needs to be on the web.
Making all public government documentation citable by an average citizen on the web including websites.
Needs to be readable by people and machines. A URL an educated person can deconstruct.
Allowing citizens to cite public government docs on a paragraph level and to allow those links to degrade in granularity. This way citizens may document on an issues basis.
Allowing citizens to cite public govt docs without their links breaking over time.
Making Government Accountable for all public documentation as it evolves and changes.
