Feature request: federation

[joshhansen]

Real political systems of any size are rarely unitary, but rather composed of a hierarchy of political units - a federation. Examples include municipalities within states/provinces, states within national/supernational federations (e.g. the United States and European Union), churches within a denomination's conference, or perhaps families within a school's PTA.

Liquid democracy should be implemented with this reality in mind. This feature request is that a given instance of the Adhocracy software be able to itself belong as a member to other instances of the software, with its votes determined by its own internal liquid democracy process.

A stretch goal would be to define an open protocol for such federation.
