Well, as most of us have gathered, yet another DPL election session came to a close. The highlights from a technical standpoint this year were that Devotee was modified mid-stream to grok encrypted ballots (early encrypted ballots, though rejected, contributed by testing devotee). The other, more visible, high light was that devotee now spits out dot graphs to depict the pairwise contests in the Beat matrix, and the resulting graphical representation of the results were published. The reaction being mostly positive, I went back and punched in graphs on most of previous results that were at all complex and could benefit from the graph diagrams.
While I was changing the vote pages, I responded to criticism of the navigation panel (or the lack thereof) on the vote pages, and the result(after a couple of false starts) is aesthetically more pleasing (well, to me it is).
Hmm. Bits from the secretary ain’t ever gonna happen. As this entry shows, they are deadly dull.
