Thanks to several people, including my father and Brent Simmons, I've taken an interest in the upcoming Papal election.
Like Brent I'm not a Catholic, but I do find the entire process absolutely fascinating. One of the most interesting Weblog posts I've seen on the topic is Bruce Schneier's piece on Hacking the Papal Election.
Completely outside of the security questions he poses, it is the best description of the voting process I've read.
