I would also really prefer a non-google poll.

You wrote "If people want to just email me responses, I can fill them into the form on their behalf."

Thats exactly what he didnt want. He didnt want to feed skynet. Of course he also didnt want that you feed it for him with the data he provide to anyone.

Would be really great if some free software running on the coreboot servers is been used for coreboot polls.

> Hey Talidan,>   If someone wants to suggest a different site for doing polls, I'd be glad to take a look, but I'm probably not going to change away from Google forms unless we find something comparable.  It's easy to make the forms, easy to take the poll, and easy to collect, analyze, and view the data.

If people want to just email me responses, I can fill them into the form on their behalf.  That way you don't have to deal with the site, but we can still use something that's easy to work with.
