Belief in the wisdom of the crowd Citizens: Belief that their input will actually contribute to something greater.

- UK Open Standards Gov wanted to develop open standards for information and technology to facilitate interoperability of systems across gov’t, public and private sectors. Costs of IT too high, wanted to level the playing field to increase competition for gov’t contracts in IT sector
- Created consultation document, developed questionnaire from that document Types of questions: do you agree with the definition of open standard? How does it affect you? How does it affect the gov’t? 4-month period where citizens could provide input; online and through 6 offline consultations At center, a website developed to help facilitate understanding and receive suggestions from citizens Flexible response policy: through form or email, as well as in person or via telephone All responses on website are public (tout les reponse ont ete rendues disponible)
- 480 responses in total, very successful given technical content. Many small & medium businesses, so many people who do not usually participate. Partnership w/ university which conducted analysis of the results Gov’t response Several months later, gov’t provided response featuring ideas that were validated by discussion, what may need to change and what needs further review. SO they looked at the general agreement within the online and offline community that participated and they also looked at the content of the responses.
