This is to inform you of the release of Votorola 0.1.10. The changes
in this release are as follows:
Doubt signaling was implemented as an adjunct to the trust
network, serving to indicate suspicious voter registrations. The
commands "doubt" and "undoubt" were added to the mail-based voter
interface, enabling mail users to extend doubt signals. A 'note'
field was added to the register, enabling doubted registrants to
respond.
Controls and views of the overall trust network were added to the
Web interface. Cumulative counts of doubt signals were added to
the voter list, providing Web users with an overview of problem
neighbourhoods, and enabling them to zero in on specific, dubious
registrations.
A cache was added to relieve the load on remote geocoding
services. Item "geocodeDatabase" was added to the subserver
configuration (subserver.js), for configuring the cache's
database. Constraints on the length of user input were tightened,
closing several security holes. A theory outline was drafted,
predicting the rough fit of Votorola in society.
List compatibility with previous releases is broken. Any voter
list compiled by "volist" under a previous release will be
unmountable under this one.
