Does boost have a means for polling their members? (other than newsgroup message).

For example, CodeGuru has a feature in which you can post a polling

See following link:

The total percentage of voters in the poll seems to be 123%. ..?

and that is surprising because?

Quite a lot of folks are going to be using more than one compiler. I have used VC7.1, VC5, and VC1.52 (don't ask) within the last year.
