What it Is  

XRepublic is a model of an interactive web conferencing system which allows extensive annotation and voting on statements presented by its membership. It can be thought of as a virtual parliament.

Goals:

  1. An XRepublic will allow large anonymous groups of people to exchange ideas and achieve consensus using a variety of voting and rating methods.
  2. An XRepublic system will help describe democratic processes in internet terminology and will provide a record of citizen behaviors.
  3. XRepubic methods will evolve to augment or replace Robert's Rules of Order.
