From the Moscow Times:
"Online to Replace Waiting In Line"

If this ever really becomes law and is carried out it will do a lot to help both ordinary Russians and foreigners visiting. Russia loves bureaucracy and this will allow them to keep that system and still make it user-friendly. My only issue is that the system that will be used to register foreigners visiting Russia will only be in Russian - it should at least also be in English. I know not many Russians (especially those 30 and over) speak English, but if Russia wants more tourists and businessmen/women then they need to include languages other than Russian.
