I agree, I just want to get the discussion started more than anything. As you say it would be a huge project.
I will add any links I can find to the page, but I wasn't envisaging the page becoming the library.

I think this is a good idea, but I think you are "biting off more than we (as a group) can chew".
This is a HUGE topic and a very important consideration.
I do not think you are doing it justice, slotting it as a page in the current LGAM site.
This topic requires all aspects of a Wiki to be adhered to and contributed to, as well as all the mediation and "policing" efforts this would require.
This topic would warrant its own site with the appropriate management in place (with the time and experience) to manage all aspects of this important issue. We have seen how hard it is to get contributions to a simple discussion group.
How do we get people to take the time to contribute to a concept like this.
It is TOO BIG a topic to be addressed part-time.
My thoughts. DP

I envision the library being a site where designers from all levels of government could publish designs under an open licence like the GNU General Public License or the Creative Commons ShareAlike Licence, so that they can be used by and improved other government departments and the Australian populace in general.

Please read the AdCiv.org AdCiv.org article referenced at the bottom of the page. It eloquently sums up a lot of the things that made me want to create this site.
