Poll does not give 100% right decision but it gives numbers at 
hand maybe 10x times more than discussion forum (usually ~5 men) 
cuz to vote is easy than discuss "why somebody need listen my 
opinion? there are smarter men" and stay passive or for some 
another reason.
Links for every poll case to final page of reasonable pro and 
cons (some github markdown page) allow to make reasonable vote. 
and u dont need read 30-50 pages of discussion without any hints 
(thumb ups) what is valuable and what is not, and where 40%-70% 
is water and offtopic.
More numbers u have - more reasonable and right decision u will 
make.

Andrei always try to stir up listeners at conferences.
So here is same thing: need to involve people to share thoughts 
and process to making some right decisions.
Need some visuality of process and gamification.

And people should to know D heroes.
Tasks board allow to see process and people who move train 
forward and tasks that waiting solution.
It can be useful for donors too, they can see real backlog, 
direction and progress of it.
