Stakeholder Community
From Trust The Vote
The TrustTheVote Stakeholder Community is a group of election officials, election technologists, election process experts, and advocates, who have graciously offered their advice to the OSDV Foundation's TrustTheVote Project. They provide input, review, and counsel on a variety architectural, technical, and policy aspects of our project to develop publicly owned open source voting technology. Their generous contributions of time and thought leadership are essential to ensuring that the TTV Project develops the U.S. election administration technology and voting technology that meets the various needs of the States, Territories, the District of Columbia, and the thousands of local election jurisdictions therein.
The Stakeholder Community is open to anyone who has domain expertise in voting systems or elections management, and is willing to provide input to our effort to build a framework of open, accurate, transparent, trustworthy and secure voting technology — freely available to any elections jurisdiction to adopt and deploy. We particularly encourage and welcome elections administrators, managers and officials from each electoral jurisdiction.
The routine operations of the Stakeholder Community operate around a mailing list and a document archive. The member-private mailing list stakeholders@osdv.org is used for OSDV to distribute messages, notifications, and requests for comment to each stakeholder. Replies to these messages may directed to the group as a whole, or may be directed solely to OSDV staff via stakeholder-replies@osdv.org. Messages are publicly archived, but only those messages from OSDV to list members. The message archive is part of the document repository.
The Stakeholders' document repository is located here, and contains all the documents that have been provided to the TrustTheVote Stakeholder Community for review and comment -- background information, white papers, drafts, specifications, Requests for Comment -- as well as the mailing list outbound message archive described above.
