I've thought about a structure like this for a long time. And I independently came up with most of the same ideas as they did. One additional thing I've also thought would be cool would be to have the implementation of a liquid democracy system itself under control by this same system. So you could use it to vote on pull requests and bug fixes and other things like that. I think this step would be necessary for real government because the code that was responsible for this system would in effect be part of the laws of the country.
