Which is a shame because getting the fundamental message across of the need for standardization at the data and interface levels is in my opinion the one that we need to keep flogging if e-voting is to take-off successfully and be adopted universally. Most of us are already convinced that commercial products should use EML (We've mentioned it in ACCURATE's past two comments on VSS/VVSG). In fact, we (a berekeley stats prof., his student, 7 election officials and myself) have a pretty powerful paper in this conference where one of the central points is that a lack of support for machine-processable structured output is a big hindrance for advanced forms of statistical audits: http://josephhall.org/f743e47d4ae7dd65eb11c0744603e457/jhall_evtwote09.pdf (Note that this link will be replaced at some point today as we will publish a preprint that updates it a bit.) best, Joe -- Joseph Lorenzo Hall ACCURATE Postdoctoral Research Associate UC Berkeley School of Information Princeton Center for Information Technology Policy http://josephhall.org/
