[Zope] Q: Verifying the poll numbers

[Phil Harris]

A for charge option sounds good, with caveats.

It most definitely shouldn't be based on Mozilla, it's too slow and heavy
(sorry ActiveState).

It should be cross-platform.

This is starting to sound like a job for Python isn't it.

Also the price shouldn't be exhorbitantly high.
