History

REACH was launched on 12 October 2006 when the Feedback Unit was restructured to move beyond gathering public feedback, to become the lead agency for engaging and connecting with citizens. REACH was also appointed as the Singapore Government’s e-engagement platform in January 2009.

gollark: Well, docker can impose some kind of CPU/RAM limits.
gollark: rule four. muahahaha.
gollark: Another significant issue is that I can't actually conveniently autoprovision VMs somehow, so I would either have to:- set up docker- just have people upload projects and have me manage service files- do that?
gollark: Also network bandwidth, since it's on a 34/8 home connection. That's the main limitation, really.
gollark: Wait, how much disk space does this take? My server only has 1TB.
