    I'd like to request a new votercard.dll file for the 3.x Ballot Station
    Software to include a new ATR String on the latest version of the 4KB
    smartcards coming out of our vendor.  Please see the attached Word document
    for the ATR String detail (The 15th byte has changed due to an upgrade in
    the Major OS Version.)

    This votercard.dll file is required to update the CPM (Card Production
    Manager) Software which we use to produce Manager Cards.  Although the CPM
    is a version 2.x software, the votercard.dll for 3.x is compatible.  This is
    required by March 22nd, 2002 as, by that time, we will exhaust our supply of
    4KB cards with the previous ATR string that currently works with the CPM.
    Although we will refrain from shipping these cards to existing AV-TS R4
    customers and supply them with the 1KB memory cards that we have remaining
    in stock, the votercard.dll file may also be needed for loading onto
    existing AV-TS R4 Ballot Stations/PollBooks for customers that desperately
    need new smart cards at a time when we have depleted our 1KB stock.

    Although testing has shown that this doesn't affect 4.x Ballot Station
    software (CE and NT versions), please verify that there are no potential
    side effects.

    If you'd like the details on the chain of events that lead to this, let me
    know and I'll provide them sometime next week.

    Sincerely,

    Ian S. Piper
