  Description     : free software to help citizens write Freedom of Information
requests and automatically publish any responses

Alaveteli is free Social Email software

It’s a simple concept: citizens use Alaveteli to request information,
and the replies are recorded for all to see on the website.
The project’s initial focus is on making Freedom of Information requests,
although it can easily be altered for other purposes. Funded by
the Open Society Institute and the Hivos Foundation, in its first year
the project aims to support the launch of dozens of FOI websites around
the world.

Historic requests, along with any resulting correspondence, are archived
publicly online. This increases the availability of the requested information,
and encourages transparency. Therefore, Alaveteli acts both as a useful tool
for citizens, and as an advocacy tool for right-to-know campaigners.

Stable releases can be found on GitHub:

I don't know that this is software well-suited to packaging. It's server-side,
and intended to be highly customized: it appears that they are distributing a
basic outline for a FOI website, not a software that creates more FOI websites.
