Introduction
The Local Government Study Group is a group in the virtual world Second Life dedicated to the promotion of tools to facilitate local governance by those who inhabit that virtual world.
The Group aims to discuss the benefits of local governance, and to develop and refine detailed proposals for sophisticated governance tools to put before SecondLifeSecond Life developers Linden Lab, in the hope of persuading them to adopt them.
