MORE volunteers for voting project needed

A couple of months ago, I posted a call for volunteers on C.L.PY for our
demo voting system development project (open source Python on SourceForge).
I am very pleased with the result so far. We have some excellent developers
to go along with some top notch experts in voting technology we have on
board.

David Mertz has taken the Development Lead position. We still have a need
for a few people to take charge of some sub-projects. We had originally
targeted the demo completion around mid-Oct. It looks like that will slip
some but I hope to keep it from slipping too much. The need for better
voting technology is fairly urgent!

If you are interested, please have a look at what we are doing. Mostly we
need Python developers but we also need someone skilled at project
management and that can do a PERT chart (or Gantt chart) -- this person does
not need to be a Python programmer. Here are our pages on SourceForge:

http://evm2003.sourceforge.net
The Architecture document may be of particular interest. You can take the
link on this page or go directly to
http://evm2003.sourceforge.net/architecture.html

Most of our interaction is taking place on our email list. The archives are
here:

Here's our other SF page
http://sourceforge.net/projects/evm2003

More background information can be found here:

http://home.earthlink.net/~adechert/

Our crew is international! Besides USA, we have programmers from India,
Italy, and Sweden. Please get in touch with me if you are interested in
helping with this project.

In the context of LATEX, some Pythonista asked what the big successes of Lisp were. I think there were at least three *big* successes. a. orbitz.com web site uses Lisp for algorithms, etc. b.

Listening to National Public Radio while reading comp.lang.python. What a life! I just heard a piece on NPR about the security failures of an electronic voting system being developed. I know a voting system could be developed in python. I am working on a simulator myself to run via the web (a personal project only) Are there any features which would make python a viable alternative to develop a real voting system for use in the US?

Hi All I've used couple of GPL/free voting scripts (some of these are very good), but need to create/find one that allows users to add a new answer. For example: This is a voting question - which answer is the best? a) answer a b) answer b c) add your own answer, vote for it and allow next voter to see this answer as voting option.

S**t for brains strikes again! Why did I do that? When I met the clients and at some point they vaguely asked whether eventually would it be possible to have some people who could read the data and some who couldn't but that it wasn't important right now. And I said, 'sure, we can do that later'. So now I've developed an app without any thought to security and am trying to apply it afterwards. Doh!, doh! and triple doh!

Hi all. Is it possible to implement an accurate voting mechanism (think digg.com) that does not require users to sign in before voting? I think for many people registering is pain and thus they rarely give their votes online. Just look at digg and compare the number of votes to the number of people visiting their website. IOW what if somebody needs votes but cannot afford to bother users with registration process?

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
