Subject: [AISdiscuss] Electronic Voting -- how about for free?

Not long ago I wrote that although I knew (or could learn) how to 
implement the electronic voting scheme, I didn't think I could get 
something workable by the deadline for next year's ballot. It seems I 
was mistaken.

The current version of my efforts is at URL:

http://irisarian.dynip.com:8080/aejaks/app?AEJAKS_SCRIPT_NAME=execVotes.tcl

It has the complete AIS ballot for this year, available for anyone to 
examine by clicking on the button for anonymous viewing. The entire 
process of voting may be undertaken, except for saving the votes. A list 
of those iris voted for is available. A warning is given if more than 
the allowed number of votes are entered, but nothing further at this 
time (the final version will of course not count sections with too many 
votes).

If instead of anonymous login, you enter a user ID and password, the 
function of saving your votes becomes available.  If you save your votes 
and sign on again, your votes are restored so that you can resume the 
process or change your selections.

The button for showing totals is not functional at the time of this 
writing, but since none of you have voted there is nothing to show 
anyway. It should be available Sunday.

If you are interested in exploring more (and I hope many are), please 
email me requesting a user ID and password, and use it to enter and save 
some votes--they can be how you really voted, but not necessarily.

I am interested in any feedback you care to give.
