[datameet] Logo Contest Voting!
I'll go for 6 and 8. I don't understand why one needs a bar graph in the logo. The words 'data' and 'meet' are enough to set the context. I think the logo should be easy to understand. We are here to un-complicate data, why then complicate the logo. Vijay -- Datameet is a community of Data Science enthusiasts in India.

[datameet] Re: Indian Elections 2014 - ECI Datasets
Hello to all, Thanks for this data. I was wondering if there is a way to Uniquely identify the Contestant If someone wants to create a track record of the contestants over period then this is important Just name is not sufficient. I tried to look for Duplicate NameParty combinations Including independents there are 97 duplicate combinations Excluding independents there are 16 7 candidates named as Chandu Lal Sahu contested from Chhattisgarh, Mahasamund Since they are from same constituency there are obviously different individuals. However there is no way to differentiate multiple persons with same name and Same person contesting in two constituencies. Any way out?

Re: [datameet] Re: Indian Elections 2014 - ECI Datasets
This will be a tough nut to crack with just the name.. especially because fielding 'dummy candidates' with same or very similar names is a fairly common practice.. Used to split votes.. As employed by the veteran ajit jogi in mahasamund.. Maybe eci will make some kind of identification number mandatory in future, or they have already.

Re: [datameet] Security Issues with the Voter List
Dear Gautam, Thank you. This is very interesting. I wrote a piece on this issue right after the failed Google-ECI deal in February http://goo.gl/e9Xea0 The UK approach seems to be a good one. In UK there are two voter lists - full list and edited list. You can choose to be removed from the edited list during the time of registration or at anytime thereafter. The edited list is available in the public domain and the full list is safeguarded by purpose limitation and UK Data Protection Law. ~Snehashish On Mon, May 19, 2014 at 10:36 AM, Gautam John gkj...@gmail.com wrote: Something I read today: http://www.medianama.com/2014/05/223-modak-marketing-election-voter-india/ -- Datameet is a community of Data Science enthusiasts in India.

Before March's Open Data Camp we wanted a DataMeet logo and had asked people to contribute some design ideas. We were expecting maybe 1 or 2 ideas that we would adapt. But were overwhelmed by how awesome everyone on this list is and received almost 15 or so design ideas! We really couldn't decide which to pick. We narrowed it down to 9 of the best designed ones and are putting it up to the group to decide. We want to keep the logo decision to people on this group. So this is how this going to work. 1) Check out the logos at this link: http://datameet.org/wiki/logocontest 2) Pick the logo you like 3) Each logo has a corresponding number to left of it. 4) Reply to this thread with the number of the logo. The logo with the most votes wins. We won't count any votes that are not replies to this thread. The contest will close on the 20th of May. Thank you to the designers! Special shoutout to Anand Doshi for designing so many! We don't have a prize for the designer yet but we will think one up. We might edit the final logo slightly, but will keep the integrity of the overall design.
