thanks for that proposal, indeed! This is something we indeed could do, 
and I'd like to enhance the idea bit:

How about writing to all the mailing lists (global/English ones for a 
start), sending a short link to a poll, where all list participants 
could cast their vote?

I can imagine that on developer, infrastructure and other lists the 
suffix could be omitted, while on users and discuss lists it is more 
likely needed. In order to find that out, we could simply ask the 
subscribers.

Do you think that makes sense, or is it too much spamming?
