I've decided to post a question or two in the actual forum. The social group is still alive and well
here, and you should join if you want to support the effort (I want a lot of members in the group before we decide there is enough support to continue). Posting here allows everyone to see the sorts of questions and discussions more easily, as well as keeping it top of mind.
The campaign being thought about at present is to lobby the right people at a federal level to ensure that we, as members of the public, have what we want -
freely available, reliable, 7 day in advance, unencumbered EPG data for FTA TV as part of the broadcasters licence terms.
At present I am trying to work out an easy way for people to find their local federal member's email and postal address.
The best I can come up with so far is a two step process:
1.
http://apps.aec.gov.au/esearch
2.
www.aph.gov.au/House/members/memlist.pdf
Not really happy with this as a process because its a bit hard and needs people to have a PDF viewer. Any thoughts on a better way?
