Subject: RE: EML v5 - OASIS STANDARD SUBMISSION
|
Hello John, The first order of business is for the TC to vote to
submit the CS for OASIS Standard ballot. We couldn’t do that bit before
because we didn’t have the three statements of use. Would you like
me to get that ballot underway? Regards, Mary From: John Borras
[mailto:johnaborras@yahoo.co.uk] Mary Now that EML v5 has been approved by the E&VS TC as a
Committee Specification, we would like to move this version onto an OASIS
Standard. The required information follows in order for you to conduct
the necessary ballot. 1. Attached are the editable versions of the
Committee Spec documentation. Can you add the appropriate URLs please.
The schema files are available separately at: 2. The TC confirms that the schemas and XML instances
are all well formed and all expressions are valid. 3. A plain language summary of the Spec is as follows: EML has been developed as a standard for the structured
interchange of data among hardware, software, and service providers who engage in
any aspect of providing election or voter services to public or private
organisations.The
objective has been to introduce a uniform and reliable way to allow systems
involved in the election process to interoperate. 4.
We have been liaising very closely with the IEEE Voting System Electronic Data Interchange Project 1622, and their draft
specification is seen as a compatible subset and USA localisation of EML.
The chair of that committee is a memebr of our TC. 5.

No minority reports from TC members exist. I
hope this covers everything required but please let me know if I have missed
anything.
