This XML file interface looks basically fine. Once again, it is well commented and very clear. The functionality that is most important for server initialization is the getElectionTitle, getNumQuestions, and getQuestion. These are the fields from the XML file that the server initialization needs so that it can create a database of the appropriate name and create a table for each question on the ballot. Needs to be in the right version of PHP, but that's obvious and that process has already begun. Regarding the schedule, since it's supposed to be done by 4/6 and the server init isn't scheduled to be tested until after that, the timing is fine. In terms of the diagram, right now there's a dashed arrow between the election administration component (the web pages) and the server initialization, which then has a dashed line to the XML file. The updated design, given this XML file interface, should be there should be a solid line from the server initialization to the XML file component (which parses the XML to generate the election administration page) and, well, I guess a dashed line between the XML parsing component and the election administration component.
