Austria has elected an new President: Dr. Heinz Fischer
One of his first projects he announced to set up after his appointment at July 8th, is the "Digital Hofburg" (where Hofburg is the name of the President's residence at the Palace of Vienna). With the initiative he wants to increase digital communication, civic engagement and public information.
This finally gives hope for further long awaited e-society/e-democracy commitment from public bodies.
Yes, that's really something to celebrate!
