Paul,
Nice.
OK - I went with some more tweaks here to refine this
to make pruning harder! And also to capture notion
of scripting here too. It's not just about data record
formats - we want ballot scripting and other techniques
to use open examinable XML too...
Bit of a run-on sentence, but it seems to work OK.
Any english majors out there can do better?
Thanks, DW

Digital vote records, audit trail control and vote process configuration
and
control scripts should be implemented, stored and prepared using open
public
specifications and process definitions that can be independently verified
and with which compatibility can be certified. The configuration, rendering
and transfer of such records and voting content should use formats defined
by freely and openly available public specifications that utilize content
markup language techniques such as the widely adopted Extensible Markup
Language (XML) syntax along with formats specified by the OASIS Election
Markup Language (EML), which is royalty free and provides open public
license terms.
