Re: [election-services] EML v6 DATA MODELS

Sorry for commenting on this at such a late stage, but it just struck me that it might make things a bit clearer for people who don't know EML by heart to make the "one-to-many" indications a bit clearer (e.g. 1..* or 0..*). We could either split them up and put the 1 and * on the correct side, or use an arrow with the three little lines at the end. It makes it more visually apparent.

Subject: [election-services] EML v6 DATA MODELS

One of the requests received in the Public Review process was the need for a data model to support v6. This request also came out very strongly in the NIST workshop before Christmas. So to meet this I have produced the attached set of models. I propose to revise the Spec Doc to include the top-level model, see Part 3.3 doc attached, and then make available the zip file containing all the lower-level models to compliment and supplement the Data Dictionary.

I'd appreciate any views on this approach and the draft models I've prepared please. Data modelling can be a very subjective and contentious discipline and I have no intention of really deep diving into the finite detail of all this. What I've produced shows the major business entities and business data used in v6 and I believe is sufficient to meet the request at this stage. If subsequently we find that it does not fulfil the need then we can do further work on it at a later stage.
