SUMMARY:
The Technical Guidelines Development Committee (the "Development
Committee") was established to act in the public interest to assist
the Executive Director of the U.S. Election Assistance Commission
(EAC) in the development of voluntary voting system guidelines.
The Committee held their first plenary meeting on July 9, 2004.
At this meeting, the Development Committee agreed to a resolution
forming three working groups: (1) Human Factors & Privacy;
(2) Security & Transparency; and (3) Core Requirements &
Testing to gather and analyze information on relevant issues.
These working subcommittees propose resolutions to the TGDC on
best practices, specifications and standards. Specifically, NIST
staff and Committee members will meet via the above scheduled
teleconferences to review and discuss progress on tasks defined
in resolutions passed at Development Committee plenary meetings.
The resolutions define technical work tasks for NIST that will
assist the Committee in developing recommendations for voluntary
voting system guidelines. The Committee met in its ninth plenary
session on May 21-22, 2007. Documents and transcriptions of Committee
proceedings are available at: http://vote.nist.gov/PublicHearingsandMeetings.html

(the "Development Committee") was established pursuant to 42 U.S.C.
