Hi NathanaelB,

Thanks for your post about our Future Melbourne wiki, which we've
grown to refer to as "the city plan that anyone can edit!".

Our public consultation period began on 17 May and will run until 14
June. During this time we encourage everybody to visit the site and
register to take part in discussions and to help us edit and refine
the plan. This might be as simple as fixing our spelling mistakes ;)
or as involved as drafting new Outcomes.

We've recently redesigned the wiki with a new look and feel.
Unfortunately, this means this link above no longer works. For those
wanting to view the Wired City Pathway, you can do so via the
following link: http://www.futuremelbourne.com.au/wiki/view/FMPlan/S2G4P4WiredCity

We look forward to your input. If you have any questions you can reach
us at futuremelbourneadmin AT melbourne.vic.gov.au

Thanks!
Dale
