Subject: RE: [election-services] Revised EML 330 - Election List xsdPaul,Understood.I was kinda prodding you a little bit to try and see them in a more generic vein - and how they might be used for other elections - where digital registration systems are in use...? ; -)Obviously we'll need to make sure the P1612 folks are happy with their specific needs being addressed - and I did use their specific element requests fromt heir XML examples. Seeing I'm also working on a live US implementation myself - I'm kinda first hand getting feedback from our development team right now - so they are keeping me honest there!Thanks,DW

David,I didn't mean "US-centric" as a criticism. It is just that the US is the driver for these changes, so it is hard for me to say whether they meet the requirements.RegardsPaul-----Original Message-----

Subject: RE: [election-services] Revised EML 330 - Election List xsdPaul,I have endeavoured to make them less US-centric by revising the element names, and making the mechanisms able to accept more use cases than just the specific US ones.Now I have the NDR link - I'll adjust accordingly to make them consistent.All these details, finetuning and feedback is exactly what I was looking for - before continuing on with the next schema(s).I'm hoping to avoid making too many changes to core - but obviously I'm anticipating we'll have some.Many thanks, DW

David,I really need to see the changes you make to the core to see the final results. I can't really comment directly on these US-centric changes at the moment as they are outside my experience.In terms of the naming conventions, we have been using the UK Government NDR at http://www.govtalk.gov.uk/documents/schema-guidelines-3_1(1).pdf. This affects various of the names you have used. We might as well be consistent.RegardsPaul-----Original Message-----

Subject: [election-services] Revised EML 330 - Election List xsdTeam,I've just spent some hours getting the EML 330 updated for V5.0 - based on the requested changes from IEEE P1612 to support pollbook handling.I've uploaded this to the TC documents section here:What takes the time is just finding existing type declarations and then hooking those into the new element, and extending it with additional attributes as needed - and getting the schema editor to check it is OK.Anyway - please take a look. You will find the top of the schema now has a comments section that calls out the changes added - elements and attributes. Everything else is from v4.0 - I've not had to change those base schema includes to do this - aim is to re-use v4.0 as much as possible here.Hopefully everyone concurs on the approach - I don't want to do the remaining changes before I've made sure I'm headed in the right direction first!If everyone is happy with this - then I'll work on the other ones - hopefully this will move a bit faster now I've got one done! I'm estimating I have another 5 or 6 to do to catch all the changes that have been asked for.Thanks, DW
