A New Internet-Draft is available from the on-line Internet-Drafts directories. Title : The Universal Voting Markup Language (UVML) Author(s) : Erin Mikel Phillips Filename : draft-phillips-uvml-03.txt Pages : 21 Date : 2013-01-11 Abstract: This document describes the Universal Voting Markup Language (UVML), a syntax for the structured representation of opinion in free text. Using UVML, opinions can be encoded in text, image, or video, and reliably interpreted by either human readers or automated-agents. UVML supports both rating and ranking semantics. Ratings may be scored using symbols associated with the five most commonly used opinion dimensions: quality(*), importance(!), outlook($), support- opposition(+), and likelihood(%). In addition, UVML defines a syntax for optionally including a demographic signature by which voters can publish basic demographic information with their UVML votes. The design of UVML leverages cross-cultural sentiment and voting-systems scholarship.
