Feedback:

+ The website looks good and professional.

- It is totally bloated and its hard to find actual information about the project, status and the team.
- It contains copy-pasted information from other sources.
- People dont believe this project really exists, the website is suspicious.

Why not starting with a small website first, containing the most essential stuff only?

Don't bloat it with unessessary stuff like explaining blockchains. And show faces, code and current progress. Highlight that.

more competition for VOTE?

DemocracyOS is researching blockchain solutions under the community label http://democracy.earth/
V-Initia is born dead. The V-App page is offline for some months now. Correct me if you know any other details.
Bitcongress claims a lot but never published any code or references. I dont believe in claims.

Most promising solutions are developed by http://democracy.earth, http://publicvotes.org  or the http://decentproject.eu ... and yeah, add http://followmyvote.com to the list.

I'm currently working on a general whitepaper on blockchain voting. You can follow my team on http://appstimmung.de (working title).

that's an important topic. excuse me if I necro on this one, but it's one of the toughest things to get solved with decentralized blockchain voting.

From my understanding you have something like a share of an asset (a single vote, satoshi)
you can send it where ever you want and still be in control of it..

But a key followup question remains: Who decides who is allowed to vote. Who distributes the tokes or shares. And who makes sure that the "provider" does not abuse his stack to manipulate the voting process?

you will need to register your account at an "central" authority and get a signature for that on the blockchain from that CA.
so your local government has to ensure not to sign the same guy twice on two different accounts

I hope that is not the solution

no answers?

I'm in contact with them, if you need anything, just ping me.

uhh Etherum, wollt ihr nicht lieber mit @ak und @Slick Willy von FollowMyVote.com zusammen arbeiten...
EDIT: zu spät gesehen da hast du ja schon geklingelt 

...

Was genau hat euch denn dazu geführt das mit Ethereum zu machen?
Wüsste spontan nichts, was nicht auch auf BitShares integriert werden könnte.

Turingvollständige Programmiersprache Solidity, Ethereum Virtual Machine. Wenn ein CTO vorbei läuft, der sagt, wir machen das auf Bitshares, dann sagt hier sicher keiner "nein", das ist der Vorteil am Technischer-Lead-Sein. :-)  Meine persönliche Expertiese liegt bei Ethereum zurzeit. Wenn auch mein Herz immernoch in dieser tollen Community liegt.

Also wer Bock hat mit Open-Source-Etnwicklung Geld zu verdienen, und kein Problem damit hat nach Berlin zu zeihen, sollte mal vorbei schauen :-)

Liebe Community,

verzeiht, dass die Ausschreibung auf Englisch ist, da wir aber in Berlin suchen, erlaube ich es mir mal zunächst hier ins Deutsche Subforum zu stellen. Bei Fragen einfach Fragen.
