I tried to abstain from this discussion on whether the bike shed should have 
been repainted although I do have an opinion :-)

Don't have we have anything better than twitter for such a poll?
Something on FreeBSD infra maybe?
I recall some polls and surveys in the past and they weren't on twitter.

Reading some comments on twitter (thankfully I don't need to sign up for that) I 
see a valid point about feature discoverability.  If it beeps, I know that it 
can beep.  And if that annoys me, I'll try to research how to disable it.  If it 
doesn't beep, how would I even know that it can beep?  (Asking for a 15 year old 
friend).  Maybe I would find the beeping useful and pleasant, but what are my 
chances of learning that it exists?
