I have been tinkering with the idea of setting up several polls or surveys in order to better get an opinion of the coldbox community. However, I wanted to ask the community what polling software or services they believe are good. I would prefer a solution where I wouldn't have to host it, but more of a service that can generate the HTML for me, sort of like: http://www.questionpro.com/poll-software.html. Or maybe a survey solution would work also. Anyways, I guess the less maintenance I have, the better. What are your thoughts? What would you recommend as far as polling or surveys goes?

BoxLang AI 3.7: Profiles, Embeddings Defaults and MCP Rate Limiting
Ortus Solutions announces the release of BoxLang AI 3.7. Name a provider, model, params and API key once, then pick it by name for a call, an agent, or a single agent run. Embeddings get their own defaults, MCP servers you build get rate limiting and trusted proxies, and a handful of important fixes land along the way.

BoxLang 1.19.0: See Everything Your Code Does
Ortus Solutions today announces the release of BoxLang 1.19.0, the software productivity platform for building, modernizing and running applications, with developers and AI agents working together. This release is about observability: built-in code coverage and execution profiling, the missing post-invocation events for BIFs, and new query and transaction events, and it pairs with the new BxLens beta, the debug bar and ops console that exposes hotspots and bytecode profilers. It also adds your own global settings in boxlang.json, static method interception, raw binary HTTP streaming and a lot of hardening across JDBC, Java interop and CFML compatibility.

The open source Coldfusion based Soundings project looks like an interesting survey project. Located here:
http://soundings.riaforge.org/
I have yet to use this but from the literature it sounds like a good solution: I will be looking to implement a survey in the near future so if you could let me know how you make out with this or any other solution that would be very much appreciated. And I'll do the same. Thanks.

I'm a bit biased, but I think Soundings is a good solution, although it doesn't meet your preference to be a service. If you do use it, or try it and don't like it, whatever, please let me know.
