Another note: The Fedora Ambassadors had a meeting and I read in their
minutes that they had a need to enhance the Voting App for things they
want to do but they never contacted me.  I was planning to contact them
before enhancing the voting application.  If someone else is planning to
make voting do surveys, it would probably be a good time to talk to the
Ambassadors about what their requirements are as well.

P.S. Voting is a pretty simple python cgi script at the moment.  If
someone wants to get their feet wet, it would be a fun little project to
start working with.  You could enhance the cgi or rewrite it with
TurboGears depending on how much work you wanted to do with it.
