There is a Ruby standalone tool called "the decider" on 
https://labs.riseup.net/ for making quick and custom surveys. When you create 
a survey (clicking on "decider", and then entering the issue), you receive a 
unique url for that survey. Is based on trust, so is not enforcing 
authentication, and i think it shouldn't be a problem inside Fedora community.

This is an example: 
https://labs.riseup.net/decider/issue/view/iemaebienoohoocoophe

You'll see, there is a basic range of options for every possibility. The code 
is hosted in https://labs.riseup.net/code . Of course the reliability for real 
decisions is not included in this standalone webapp. But in crabgrass (our 
social network) is included with authentication included (with history too), 
example:
https://we.riseup.net/crabgrassdemo/crabgrass-demo-group-meeting-time+9662

and there is another two tools useful, one more like a questionaire, another a 
poll with something like a ranged vote. But i have no public accesible pages 
to show you, sorry. You should register to access some examples in user 
feedback group.

So, here are my two cents:

a) Using quick surveys (self-hosting the decider, or using the webapp in 
riseup).

b) Testing the other tools on the https://we.riseup.net/ social network, my 
public profile is in https://we.riseup.net/tzk and i'd love help with any 
doubts for making the tests you want.

It's free as beer, and free as in freedom ;)
