There's a pretty similar format[0] that I made pocket-devotee[1] consume
that we use for most CTTE votes (which are public, but have a limited
number of voters).
devotee itself uses its tally format which pocket-devotee also can consume.
As far as developers of devotee, I think it's basically Kurt Roeckx and
Manoj Srivastava. Not sure how active they are in voting theory.

I stared at the mountain rising over me. Empty. It was a pointless
thing to have done -- climb up it, across it, and down it. Stupid! It
looked perfect; so clean and untouched, and we had changed nothing.
[...] I had been on it too long, and it had taken everything.
