Hello all,

I have started work on a library in Clojure (a lisp for the JVM) which 
implements many different voting methods, so far including IRV, Borda 
Count, and Schulze among others. Let me know if you have any feedback. 
The project can be found here:

https://gitlab.com/lunik1/suffragium/

I am on the look out for worked examples to test my implementations 
against, does anybody have any pointers on where I could find that kind 
of thing? For example I found "The Schulze Method of Voting" paper on 
arXiv very helpful when implementing that method as the examples within 
cover many different corner cases. In particular the methods I hope to 
implement next are Minimax, Tideman's Alternative (inc. Benham's 
method), and Coomb's method. So far I have used the examples found on 
Electowiki/Wikipedia where I can.
