Jon, I think that these delineations are terrific. The difficulty is if we can get folks to adopt them in real time on the ground. I'd like to get the more traditional "boots on the ground" voting groups like the "Our Vote" hotline, Voter Action and grassroots mobilization groups like Center for Community Change to make their folks aware of it. Maybe we should start by inviting them to bang on the categories a bit, particularly the Incident type (which is where they live) so they can buy in.

good point ... I added a new section "who else should we involve" to start to capture this. we should get them involved as soon as possible to make sure the proposal's meeting their needs. also they may well have some work we can use directly, for example EIRS has an incident type taxonomy (in the "Show" pulldown menu at http://voteprotect.org/index.php?display=EIRMapNation&tab=ALL )
one thing to keep in mind is that we're also reaching out directly to people who typically aren't voting rights activists, so we need to make sure things are accessible to mere mortals, not just election protection exports
