Simple voting features have been added to OpenStack's MeetBot. Once a
meeting is started a meeting chair can start a vote with the
#startvote command. Command format is '#startvote $question $choices'
eg '#startvote should we stop this meeting? yes, no'. Meeting
participants vote using the #vote command eg '#vote yes'. To check
intermediate voting results you can use the #showvote command which
takes no arguments. When done voting a meeting chair ends voting with
the #endvote command (this will add a VOTE item to the meeting
minutes).

Currently there isn't a way to restrict voters. You may vote multiple
times, but only your last vote counts. If no vote choices are given
the defaults are 'Yes' and 'No'.

Have fun with it and hopefully it doesn't break :)
