I've been trying to read the actual text of laws and bills, both in my local city, as well as in the Library of Congress. The Library of Congress Search engine, at thomas.loc.gov, is horrible to use - not only is the searching difficult to use, but you can't link to a law or bill.
Do you think there would be value in creating some sort of "legal wikipedia"? If so, what are some good resources to get started? Who could help an intrepid developer get such a thing kicked off?
