(May I post this draft for the record?  And for comment, if anyone is
interested?)

I describe a medium in which agreements arising from discussion can
build incrementally to include large numbers of people.  I suggest
that the medium might enable the institution of communicative action
at societal scales.  Consensus of the population might then decide
such questions as the allocation of state power and the promulgation
of norms.

(I'll post each section separately, as I finish drafting it.)
