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.

 

Regards

 

Paul

Team,

 

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:

http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/election/download.php/21108/330-electionlist-v5-0.xsd

 

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
