[consulting] $25k Civic Engagement + other egov projects

[Matt Chapman]

Hi Neil,

You may want to take a look a citizenspeak module, which I currently 
maintain:

http://www.drupal.org/project/citizenspeak

Some funding would help us add the international support, and better 
integrate with key Drupal modules like CCK, Views, etc.

Also, in regards to your consultant's directory, off hand, I suspect 
that OG would be the better route for categorization, likely combined 
with content_profile for storing information about the consultants.

Best,

Matt
