There are discussions right now about the best ways to update the outdated Congressional IT policies, including the best way to make legislative records more accessible to the public via XML, APIs, etc. The Open House Project is drafting a report that they will be submitting to Congress. The project, incidentally, is supported by the Sunlight Foundation, Speaker Pelosi, and several other groups. There is also a mailing list and wiki for the project.
