If you're really keen, then the list of candidates that the AEC publishes includes telephone numbers for all of them, and email addresses for many of them. In case you can't find any useful information online, you can always ask them their position on the issues you think are relevant.
OK that didn't take long. The site seems to be slashdotted already. Perhaps it wasn't a good idea for it to be serving 500KB @font-face referenced fonts from my little VPS.:)
Once everybody's stopped clicking the link, I'll try moving the static data over to something that can handle it, like an Amazon S3 bucket.
That's a good point, regarding the election promise for it to be an optional filter. Do you have a reference for that? I want to ensure my facts are correct for my question.
HTML 5 is going to have a element, and some people want support for a particular codec to be mandated so that you can have a video that will play in all browsers.
The reason that Batik doesn't handle the baby tux file is that there is indeed an error in it. On line 90, the transform attribute doesn't have a closing parenthesis in it.
Quoting from SVG 1.1, one of the things that must be done when the document is "in error" is:
A highly perceivable indication of error shall occur. For visual rendering situations, an example of an indication of error would be to render a translucent colored pattern such as a checkerboard on top of the area where the SVG content is rendered.
Batik stops document rendering at that point and pops up a message indicating the error. Not many UAs do this, actually, and many actually just choose to ignore errors. This is likely one of the causes of the difference in behaviour you are seeing.
SVG 1.2 is coming along, bringing with it the netowrking APIs and so forth to make it a more serious application platform. Though Adobe is typically quiet about new releases of their SVG plugin, work is going on in the background. After some licence owrries, Thomas is back working on Batik, implementing SVG 1.2 features.
The site's kinda running again now, albeit a bit slowly. Don't all go clicking at once now. :)
I'm not sure what special functionality would be needed for silent electors.
Yes, this site's good too. Had I known it existed a few weeks ago when I started working on mine I may not have bothered. ;)
I think it might be illegal to encourage people to vote informally though!

If I could ssh to the machine, I would. :)

First female PM, sworn in by our first female Governor General, too. Also she is an avowed atheist. I think that's a first for an Australian PM, too.

I'll be in the audience. Suggestions on the most effective way to point out flaws in the proposed censorship regime welcome. :)

...then maybe that's a reasonable value to ask for. :)

That's called Poisoning the well.
Was I the only one to think that the title claimed that the Chinese Communist Party was to merge with a games company?
Tell that to the Gnome people. :/
Sheesh, just because you haven't watched the movie yet!
on a VM!
Incidentally Batik now has support for SMIL animation in SVN, which will be included in the next release.
It is every man's duty to do so. :)

SVG is getting big support from mobile vendors. See the list of shipping and upcoming phones that support SVG.
