Subject: RE: [election-services] OASIS EML TC MEETING


Of the two, I prefer the first as having the system down would not look good.
 
Far better would be to allow people to choose their own channel, then have a mechanism to handle multiple voting attempts. Ideally, this would prevent multiple votes, but second best would be to detect them.
 
After writing this, I read David's comment. That would work.

Things are coming to a head and we need to react quickly to events over the next few weeks if we are going to have finalised EML v5 in time for the Interop Demo at end October.

 

First we have the outcome of the second Public Review, see below, to deal with and approve the package for Committee Specification stage.  Secondly we need to firm up our plans for the Demo, agreeing exactly who is doing what and considering the paper from Opt2Vote on voter registration etc. 

 

So I propose to hold a TC teleconference to discuss both aspects on Monday 3rd September at 13.00 GMT (14.00 UK, 15.00 CET, 09.00 EST).  I think we need to reserve a couple of hours for the call although those who are not going to be a part of the Demo can fall off the call after we've cleared the Public Review comments.  Please let me know as soon as possible if this date/time is not convenient as we will need maximum attendance so that we can vote on decisions as necessary.

 

For us to proceed to Committee Specification stage I will need assertions from 3 suppliers that they are using EML.   Without these we cannot proceed.  Can I have volunteers for this please. 

 

Regards

John

Subject: [members] Public Review of EML v5.0 - 15 day review

To OASIS members, Public Announce Lists:

The OASIS Election and Voter Services TC has recently approved the
following specification as a Committee Draft and approved the package for
public review:

Election Markup Language (EML) Version 5.0
- Process and Data Requirements
- Schema Descriptions
- EML Data Dictionary
- Schema Package

The public review starts today, 15 August 2007, and ends 30 August 2007.
This specification was previously submitted for a 60-day public review on
11 April 2007[1]; this 15-day review is limited in scope to changes made
from the previous review. All changes are highlighted and indicated in the
accompanying change log.

This is an open invitation to comment. We strongly encourage feedback from
potential users, developers and others, whether OASIS members or not, for
the sake of improving the interoperability and quality of OASIS work.

More non-normative information about the specification and the technical
committee may be found at the public home page of the TC at:

Comments may be submitted to the TC by any person through the use of the
OASIS TC Comment Facility which can be located via the button marked "Send
