I am sorry, but I do not think that proprietary tools that exclude a
major part of Civil Society from participation are any help, at all.

Using proprietary software is in plain contradiction to the principles
of Civil Society. So in my opinion it is better to work with proven,
inclusive tools that respect the values of Civil Society than going
with "more sexy" tools that are discriminating.

Given the current state of Civil Society, introducing another source
of irritation does not seem like a very good idea.

Regards,
Georg
