DGS Joins Transitions in Governance 2008

The Digital Government Society has joined the Transitions in Governance 2008 Project. The Project represents a coalition of organizations contributing ideas about the management of the U.S. Government with the intent of shaping the management dimension of the next President's Administration.  This discussion is about how to better manage government rather than about partisian politics.

We encourage you to contribute comments and ideas to the Electronic Government portion of this project, as well as to other themes.
