You're absolutely right in the fact that this is the first time a wiki has been used in Australia to consult with people about a city plan. In fact, as far as we can tell, this will be a world first on this scale. We'd like to mention that whilst the wiki is indeed one tool in our consultation suite, it is in fact the primary tool. We continue to offer more traditional consultation options as well in order to ensure those without computer/internet access are not disadvantaged. You might also like to check out our new look site, which has been redesigned especially for the public consultation period. Hope you get a chance to jump across and contribute. The wiki is open for public editing until 14 June! Dale Future Melbourne Team http://www.futuremelbourne.com.au Hi there and thanks for your post on Future Melbourne.
