[amsat-bb] Web based Surveys

["Al copland" <allan_gm1sxx@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I've seen some interesting suggestions here.  Wow! I did not expect so much 
personal email re this.

I am not a web designer, it is not my field. I'm an ICT engineer, but were 
AMSAT willing to go down the road of a full survey based on a membership 
database, I could certainly consult our web designers at my workplace or 
elsewhere  about the possibility of commisioning such a project.   The real 
question is whether or not the AMSAT BOD would embrace voting for all, 
rather than statistical methods.

If it stopped the bickering and lead to greater transparency in the 
decision-making process it could only be a good thing for both the BOD and 
the general membership.

Out of interest, I did a web search for 'Internet survey tools'. This 
produced a multitude of hits. I believe the technology already exists for 
this type of thing.  It is not a novel concept.
