Just as a general note: The technical entry paths we're able to
support at this stage (alpha prototyping) are for:

 (a) Developers who want to modify the software.  We can help you with
     building and deploying the code.

 (b) Administrators who want to spark formal consensus-making efforts
     in specific areas.  We can show you how to set up for that.  It
     doesn't involve installing Votorola.

 (c) Users who want to join existing consensus-making efforts as alpha
     testers, reviewers or designers.

It think you want (b).  But I would recommend starting with (c).  Then
you'd have a better idea of what you're getting into, and how it might
relate to the voting machines you mentioned.  We're looking to do a
little (c) ourselves, I think in this context:
