As this is the tools discussion after all, might it maybe be a good tool to have a voting tool for the IETF?
"We reject kings, presidents, and voting..."
This isn't 100% true, of course; there are a very few specific cases where "voting" is used to make a decision. They tend to be somewhat specialized (for example, the system the IESG uses to decide whether to approve documents) and have specially-designed tools.
I don't think a general-purpose voting tool is needed or appropriate.
