Hi Jeff,

The Polling Booth is a separate site www.pollingbooth.info,  developed 
especially to help secure voting on the web in the ICANN context and 
allowing for comments on the questions and reply options.

Only voters with their own unique password can vote.
Nobody can vote more than once.

It saves a lot of work when doing frequent polls.

I will make it available as a tool for decisionmaking within the Panel.
Nobody can cheat when 5 people know what they voted and voting can even be 
made non-anonymous.
This way the Panel will become familiar with its use.

I could even give a rotating admin account.
