>> Greetings from Strathmore.
>>
>> The Kenya Film Classification Board (KFCB) has published the Films, Stage
>> Plays and Publications Bill (2016) as part of reviewing the existing the
>> Film and Stage Plays Act Cap222 with the aim of aligning it with the
>> Constitution of Kenya (2010).
>>
>> As an effort to use technology to supplement existing public
>> participation avenues in Kenyan law making, we have developed Jadili <
>> http://jadili.ictpolicy.org/docs/kfcb2016>, an open source project
>> running on Madison <https://github.com/opengovfoundation/madison>  as a
>> transparent tool for aggregating pubic sentiments, comments and annotations
>> to specific parts of proposed laws.
>>
>> We hope you can use Jadili to read the Bill, support or oppose it, single
>> out specific clauses and provide alternative wording. This, we think, is a
>> progressive path to constructive public participation as it avoids the
>> general good/bad dichotomy while giving the drafters much more insight into
>> which parts of the Bill need revision.
>>
>> After the public participation window closes, we send ALL input as
>> received to the drafters for their consideration.
>>
>> I hope you will use Jadili and if you have any suggestions to improve on
>> it, that will be greatly appreciated.
>>
>> Find the Bill here: http://jadili.ictpolicy.org/docs/kfcb2016 <
