The poll does ask the community what their preference between the two
conferencing systems is... and the "volunteer to maintain Jitsi" is
misleading -- it's really "volunteer to maintain the CCG
infrastructure", which includes a variety of things other than Jitsi
(which shouldn't take a lot of effort once things are stable). I don't
know why Jitsi maintenance will take 2-12 hours a month if the system works?

I expect the outcome is that most of us will show up no matter what
system is used because we value the discussion over the infrastructure.
I also expect that it will be difficult for people to volunteer to
"maintain Jitsi" just as it will be difficult for people to volunteer to
"maintain the CCG infrastructure" -- it's a vague ask.

Can we please reword the survey so we can capture people's preferences
on our infrastructure?

Some suggestions:

1. How often do you attend the Tuesday CCG meeting?

2. Given equivalent functionality, do you prefer to use an open
   source or closed source for our video conferencing system?

3. Given equivalent functionality, do you prefer to use an open
   standards or proprietary solution for our video conferencing
   system?

4. What features are important to you in a video
   conferencing solution?
   * Works in my Web browser
   * Native client
   * Stability
   * Phone-based dial-in
   * SIP and VoIP connection options
   * Accessibility
   * Other: ____________

5. Are you willing to volunteer to maintain the tooling
   that the CG uses to hold meetings and generate
   meeting minutes (jitsi, scribe tool, system administration,
   documentation)?

6. Are you willing to financially support the CG tooling?
   * No
   * Yes, $25/year
   * Yes, $50/year
   * Yes, $100/year
   * Yes, $___/year

7. If you plan to volunteer, please list the things
   you feel comfortable helping with:
   * Server Maintenance
   * Software Maintenance / Coding
   * Minute Cleanup/Publishing
   * Updating Documentation
   * Other: ____________

The above would give us a better idea of preferences in the community.
