Lego and Government Websites

Greetings from Unconference Canberra. I just talked about "Online Colombo Plan". Now there are two sessions which seem to be about Lego and one on GovCMS. The latter is an implementation of Drupal from the Australian Department of Finance, configured for use by government agencies. This has been a little controversial as another government agency, Digital Transformation Office in the Department of Prime Minister and Cabinet, has been working on a new improved GOV.AU website. In my view the two agencies activities are complementary, not competitive. Finance are working on the details of how to implement, whereas DTO are working on what to implement.
