The only problem I see with this is that it's not an authenticated
polling engine.  You don't have to log in to vote, and you can vote
multiple times in a row; just clean out your cookies.

I'm going to look into stealing the "devotee" software from the Debian
voting system.  It uses a variant of the Condorcet voting system that
prevents loops and other unpleasentness.  The bonus is that it's email
based and can optionally use OpenPG signatures.

If you want to wait until I have the system packagable, let me know,
otherwise we should probably dedicate a voting alias and send in our
votes.
