There was a bill that got published on Github a few months back: https://github.com/responsible-financial-innovation-act22/RF...
Not sure if any suggested changes got incorporated or even addressed, but it's a really interesting concept

I've thought about this (as an outsider who doesn't know anything) and wondered if plain old git would do the job. I've heard Germany already does this, but when I looked at https://github.com/bundestag/gesetze it didn't look like this was representative of what I would assume to be the full extent of German legislation.
In theory, you probably wouldn't find lobbyists contributing directly, but you could find representatives and then link them to lobbyists they've associated with.

And here a git with all German Laws (scroll down for English readme), of course not by the government but set up and updated by volunteers.
- A top quality idea

Who keeps hiring those people?
For example this one containing all German federal laws: https://github.com/bundestag/gesetze
