That's the Australian approach, where the federal government collects all income taxes (courtesy of some interesting legal maneuvering in WW2) as well as sales taxes, leaving the states only able to collect payroll taxes, land taxes, m

A lot of email-based projects use tools like Patchwork ( https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/ ) to provide a web interface to patches. I agree that it's still a really suboptimal experience compared to e.g. GitHub. (disclosure:
