+              What the flag for New Zealand will look like in the
+	      future has become the topic of much debate in the
+	      country, now the Prime Minister, John Key, has scheduled
+	      a binding referendum on the matter.

+	      we've put together a web-browser based tool that let's
+	      you try out your ideas for an alternative.

+	    <p>
+	      In the steps that follow you will be asked to:
+	    </p>
+	    <ul class="infopage">
+		<li>
+		  1. Choose a width and height for your flag (not all
+		  flags in the world are the same size).
+		</li>
+		<li>
+		  2. Select a colour palette to work from (modest sized
+		  with distinct colours recommended).
+		</li>
+		<li>
+		  3. Interact with 2D paint application (primed with your
+		  previous choices) in which you develop your idea.
+		</li>
+		<li>
+		  4. See your flag flying on top of the Beehive in a 3D simulation.
+		</li>
+	    </ul>
+
+	    <p>
+	      We've also added in a flag similarity feature, so you can check how
+	      similar your flag design is compared with other countries.
+	      After all, a key impetus for considering a replacement flag
+	      is that we want to stop people mixing us up with Australia,
+	      and we wouldn't want to end up with the same situation happening again
+	      with another country's flag!

+              with distinct colours recommended).  Then you will
+	      be presented with a 2D paint application (primed with your
+	      previous choices) in which you design your flag.
