Irrespective of zombies et al. Voting requires the following basic
elements :
1. verifiability when casting the vote, i.e. the voter can see that the
vote that is cast will be the vote that is counted. This is not possible
without a paper trail which is also a valid vote.
2. Counting control.

The person who compiled that list is very active on the Stanford Drones
list that Yosem sent around a link to just the other day. I haven't done

to his conclusions over there.

Seems Al Mac, who compiled that list, is someone who became interested
in drones and has become an expert on the subject.
Al is now retired but previously worked full time at Kauffman
Engineering as their computer support guy for ERP on AS/400. His
posts on the drone list are very informative.

more reliable than pure electronic voting in an official election.

Hi Jon
Thanks for the detailed response - and I can see your points. Indeed, to an
extent I agree with them!
I'll try to do a more detailed response tomorrow, but just a few points now.
1. On privacy, I agree, it's more about helping get a more 'savvy' community
than anything else.
