Hello all

At last week's strategy discussion we reviewed the ideas that had been
collected in the Open Government Manifesto
<http://www.opengovmanifesto.org.uk/ideas> so far, and plotted them
according to their potential impact and likelihood. You can find that
analysis here
<https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gq2haWm-f1ZlJCzUy5chnzDvzYn-MR22-k0OlaIHXdA/edit?usp=sharing>.
As well as giving us a better sense of what the network's priorities should
be, the exercise helped to illuminate that:

   - The ideas range significantly in terms of quality, with many requiring
   more development
   - There are still some gaps to fill (particularly big high impact ideas)

With that in mind, we agreed that the next steps should be:

   1. Identify & submit any final missing ideas to the Open Government
   Manifesto
   2. Last push through our networks to collect final ideas
   3. Close the manifesto to new ideas
   4. Transfer all manifesto ideas to collaborative documents
   5. Invite the original authors & others to improve the ideas based on
   comments & the judgement of their impact & likelihood
   6. Select the ideas to be taken forward to discussions with the
   government

We will therefore be closing the Open Government Manifesto
<http://www.opengovmanifesto.org.uk/ideas> to new ideas in two weeks (25th
June). So if you've been sitting on an idea and haven't got around to
posting it, now is the time!

Please do give one final push through your networks over the next couple of
weeks for people to contribute.

To be clear, these ideas will form the asks that the civil society network
takes to the National Action Plan process. As that process with government
develops, new ideas may of course come to the fore.

Best,

Tim
