It's really been tough not being able to talk about this, but it has now hit the press. The NSF has funded our center-level CyberTrust proposal titled, "A Center for Correct, Usable, Reliable, Accurate and Transparent Elections" (ACCURATE) to the tune of $7.5 million:
- "NSF Awards $36 Million Toward Securing Cyberspace"
- "Johns Hopkins-led Center Will Study and Develop Voting Technologies"
- "UC Berkeley part of NSF-funded center to study e-voting"
- "NSF center aims to bolster security and trust in e-voting"
I'll add some thoughts shortly below the jump... in short, my Phd thesis work is now fully funded.

Forget IT.
You are only tilting at a windmill.You do yourself and the "cause" NO GOOD through participation in such a "urinating contest"
You are too good at what you do.
Forget a new career as a diplomat.
Congrats for hard work well done. You are good at what you do, and most of us finally come to realize that diplomacy is a necessary ingredient of progress.
