Greetings All-
Sorry we’ve been away from the podium here for a couple of weeks. We’re heads-down on some very exciting projects. But not nearly as exciting as what I have to announce today. Let’s get right to it.
The time has come. Some might argue it’s overdue. Growth of the activities and work here, and the [...]

As Greg said in his New Year’s posting, we’ve been planning a variety of activities for 2011, and reflecting on what we did in 2010, much that remains to do, and to do better. But at the risk of boring you with a laundry list, I wanted to provide some additional detail on some of [...]

Gentle Readers:
This is a long article/posting. Under any other circumstance it would be just too long.
There has been much written regarding the public evaluation and testing of the District of Columbia’s Overseas “Digital Vote-by-Mail” Service (the D.C.’s label). And there has been an equal amount of comment and speculation about technology supplied to the District [...]

I’ve been out on a temporary personal leave of absence due to a family crisis, but I want to weigh in on the progress of the D.C. distance balloting project where portions of the TrustTheVote Project elections technology framework are being deployed for the upcoming election in November. And it appears that an announcement was [...]

One of our Executive Directors, Gregory Miller, had the opportunity to attend the O’Reilly Media’s Open Source Conference this week in my home town of Portland, Oregon (his too, in fact). Summer is in full swing here, although no major heat waves so far; we’ve been enjoying cool morning marine layer followed by a pleasant [...]

The TrustTheVote Project of the Open Source Digital Voting (OSDV) Foundation achieved another important milestone two weeks ago this morning, this time with the District of Columbia Board of Elections and Ethics, although not without some controversy. The short of it is, and most important to us, the Foundation has been given the opportunity to [...]

We’re pleased to echo the announcement by the District of Columbia’s Board of Election and Ethics (BOEE) that they will adopt TrustTheVote technology as part of a pilot project to support the delivery and return of overseas ballots. In Washington D.C.’s September primary election, open-source technology from the TrustTheVote Project will be used [...]

Happy Friday-
Apologies for the apparent radio-silence these past few weeks since returning from the Overseas Voting Summit in Munich. We’ve been very busy: handling 2 elections jurisdiction proposals and another large voter outreach group’s request to adopt portions of our open source elections technology framework, with lots of related work effort.
But today, at the end [...]

This is the last long post about the UOCAVA Summit underway in Munich, but in an unannounced move, below I am disclosing all of the topics and questions in tomorrow’s (apparently) much anticipated Internet Voting Debate.
I apologize to those looking for a quick (more typical) blog post on the matter. But there is (I think) [...]

Open Source Technology Licensing…
We’ve been promising to respond to the chorus of concerns that we may drift from the standard GPL for our forthcoming elections and voting systems software platform and technology. Finally, we can begin talking about it (mainly because I found a slice of time to do so, and not because of any [...]
