Asking the panel if they had any good examples was a bit mean, but I was hoping someone would step out. Personally, I would have said the Police National Computer was a good example...but the moment you say something is good a hundred people are ready to flame you over why it is naff. I don't blame them for not taking that risk. On the main issue of your article, I remain unconvinced either way at this stage. I think things will take a bigger step forward when new technology creates radical process changes in the public sector, rather than being used to map existing ones. I also think that idea isn't particularly new or clever - just hard to do in practice. By the way, this is my own view, and not an official BCS pronouncement!
