Ubuntu Brainstorm? Server software suggestions please!
I'd like to find a similar sort of software, not
ideatorrent, because that would require a full installation of drupal, but some very simple software for users to submit/vote on ideas/proposals for a semi-democratic committee that I'm on. I'd like to enable the people whom this committee serves to have a direct say and to be able to directly interact with the committee. They are allowed to come to meetings but as it is a monthly inter-state affair often requiring a lot of driving and time this would allow them to have their voices heard without physically attending the meetings.
Thanks!
(I'd really like to find something lighter weight than a full Drupal installation, I've had issues dealing with Drupal before!)

Thanks!

NAME
OpenSTV - Single Transferable Vote and Instant Runoff Voting Software
SYNOPSIS
openstv
DESCRIPTION
OpenSTV is an open-source software for implementing the single transferable vote and other voting methods such as instant runoff voting,
condorcet voting, and approval voting. OpenSTV is the only open-source software that implements the single transferable vote exactly as
used by governments, including Scotland and the City of Cambridge, Massachusetts. These methods have been extensively verified against
other software and/or actual election results.
Organizations can use OpenSTV to implement their own elections. First, the organization must adopt a voting method. Second, the organiza-
tion must conduct the vote, and this will most likely be done with paper ballots. Third, the ballots must be entered into the OpenSTV pro-
gram. Finally, you can use OpenSTV to count the votes and determine the winners of the election.
