The draft plan you will find on these pages represents all the great ideas, dreams and actions that have emerged through the project's detailed consultation process. Please note that from 17 May to 14 June we are engaged in extensive public consultation in which during this period any registered user can directly edit the draft plan. Consequently, the content that you read on the following pages may have changed since the commencement of public input. If you would like to view a pre-consultation version of the plan please see here. If you found your own way to us or have been invited here by another participant you can take part by clicking Register in the upper left hand corner. We ask that any significant changes you make to the content of the draft plan are explained in the discussion pages so that all participants in the wiki can understand why a change has occurred. We cannot guarantee that the changes you make will appear in the next iteration of the draft Future Melbourne plan that will be promoted publicly - that's the nature of an ongoing collaborative debate.
