The document discusses a project called "egosta" which aims to actively involve stakeholders in the development of new e-government applications using a web-based platform. The platform utilizes Web 2.0 technologies like wikis, blogs and forums to facilitate collaboration between stakeholders and project teams. The goal is to develop more user-friendly applications and increase acceptance of new e-government services by incorporating stakeholder input early in the process. Egosta has been tested on the "Virtual Company Dossier" use case in Austria. The document also outlines research questions around measuring how well Web 2.0 can facilitate stakeholder participation and the level of moderation required for an e-participation platform.
