As has been said before, a lot of people don't go to the forums to see the poll. I only go to the forums to search if I have a problem before posting to the list. There may have been a dozen polls on the forums and I would have no idea they happened. Of course, the same could be said about doing a poll on the mailing lists as well. Some Gentoo users that use the forums may not even know the mailing lists exists. I'm not sure any poll could really be accurate no matter which means is used. Add in the kids you thought of and it just adds more confusion. Dale :-) :-)
