General Comments
Comment :  Here are some recommendations for improving the integrity of the elections process, regardless
of which specific VVPR technology is used:

Fix the certification process to eliminate financial conflicts of interest, to require a certain
level of security expertise by the ITAs, and to require source code analysis as part of the ITA process. An ITA certification should consist of a full-fledged security analysis in addition to standards compliance checking.
