Cpoll can be viewed as a mini-webboard, with each question being a conference. Cpoll file is text based and user responses are stored in easy to read format, allowing easy review with any text editor. Program is written in Perl , in one file, without an external DBM and without Perl modules.
Pages are text only , for small page size and fast download.
Browser frames and cookies are not used, to simplify the user experience. Each page is self-contained , everything needed is downloaded at one time, which reduces server load and access, and allows easy saving of the page as an html file. User interaction is also improved since most user work is done on the local PC, where responses are very fast. User responses saved in compact format, only changed answers or changed comments to any question are saved. Makes efficient use of disk space and provides an audit log of user activity.
