The Public Software Group [1] released a new major version of LiquidFeedback. The developers presented LiquidFeedback 2.0 during an event held by the Interaktive Demokratie [2] association, which promotes the use of electronic media for democratic processes. The most important improvements are:
- Support for multiple organizational units, e.g. sub divisions
- New user interface
- An integrated email notification system
- A programming interface with read and write access (still in alpha stage for use by developers)
- Improved implementation of Schulze method for preference voting with detailed configuration of supermajority requirements [3]
- Removed auto-reject and vote later feature to simplify the system
- Integration of Etherpad Lite [4] with automatic creation of issue discussion rooms and single sign-on
- Wiki formatting for suggestions, member statements and comments
