Hi all,

Recently at OSCON's open government track, an audience member asked a
question that referenced an effort by a US city to put all city
government-employee email online. This intrigued me but I've been
unable to contact that person (I had a card, he didn't) and unable to
figure out which city this might have been.

I know there are efforts to put NYC's "checkbook" online, but what I'm
looking for is examples of routine communications records (email,
txts, pager msgs, IMs, etc.) being published proactively (as opposed
to in response to a records request).

Anyone heard of this? best, Joe
