Open source target: Civic Commons

Another effort (still just getting underway, really) that makes sense; Tim O'Reilly posted about it recently and I guess O'Reilly is supporting it: Civic Commons: "Sharing Technology for the Public Good". The only actual open-source release I can find is EAS, the "Enterprise Addressing System", which apparently provides a database for civic organizations to use in keeping addresses up to date? Anyway, its issue list is actually kind of long, and it's in Python. Perhaps it makes sense to analyze this as well.
