    >Purpose: To explore the Potential and Realities of Creating Public
    >Information Environments that Strengthen Citizen-Government Relationships.
    >How can the openness and freedom that characterizes sound public
    >information environments, become a stabilizing fulcrum as new contractual
    >social interactions (activities of exchange, payment, evaluation and
    >institutional advancement) are created to reflect intergovernmental
    >priorities?  How will citizen-centered performance measurements emerge from
    >this multi-stakeholder, multi-jurisdictional process?  How can the
    >principles of user-centered design guide progress?  How can emerging
    >technologies like XML/RDF standards and Human Markup Language improve
    >collaboration around problem-centered, intergovernmental scenarios?  How
    >can the collective understanding that emerges contribute to broad adoption
    >of the Federal Enterprise Architecture?  What broad, longitudinal measures
    >are researchers using today to evaluate the conditions that facilitate
    >interaction and participation among citizens and their governments,
    >world-wide?
    >
    >The President's Management Agenda (PMA) requires all federal agencies to
    >transform the roles and relationships among people, processes, and
    >technology in order to become a citizen-centered government.  The PMA
    >emphasizes bringing value and results to citizens, businesses, and
    >government workers by "reducing the burden" and producing measurable
    >improvement.
    >
    >The Federal Enterprise Architecture is emerging as an important
    >collaborative organizing process to promote the delivery of effective,
    >efficient services.  Two key FEA elements are defining the business of
    >government services (via the Business Reference Model) and improving
    >performance (via the Performance Reference Model).  How do we do that?  How
    >do we learn how to do that together?  Who are our users, and what are their
    >real goals and needs?  What do they want to do?  How does that translate to
    >action?  And how do we know when we're succeeding?  The emerging Community
    >of Practice on Usability will share insights and perspectives around these
    >questions, in light of FEA goals.
