Re: Please share with your LoCos
Hi there, I suppose you have already received few responses from Bangladeshi users already. Nevertheless Shabab Mustafa has translated the survey to local Bangla language https://www.spreadsheets.google.com/a/linux.org.bd/spreadsheet/viewform?formkey=dC1rQmd0QXlNdS01d0FOZWRYOElxS0E6MAndplr=1 I have few short questions though How long the survey will be conducted? Is there any definite deadline when the loco needs to submit their survey feedback or when the survey finding will be made public? -- Thanking you, Shahriar Tariq Volunteer, Bangladesh Linux Users Alliance http://linux.org.bd/ Team Contact, Ubuntu Bangladesh https://launchpad.net/%7Eubuntu-bd Founding Member, Amigos Clothing http://amigosclothing.com/ Personal Blog: আশাবাদীর দিনপঞ্জিকা http://www.ashabadi.com/ Endorsement: আমাদের প্রযুক্তি ফোরাম http://forum.amaderprojukti.com/ and মুক্ত.অর্গ http://mukto.org -- loco-contacts mailing list loco-contacts@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/loco-contacts

Why would you want LoCos to push an English and a localized survey resulting in incomplete and double-votes?

Please share with your LoCos
When your interaction with other Ubuntu users is entirely made up of developers talking about bugs they need to fix and users seeking support (IRC, forums, bug reports), your perspective changes. It's hard to get a good idea of the big picture. What portion of users are hitting problems in what areas? How do users who've reported bugs feel about the experience? How are the local community teams doing? That kind of stuff is hard to wrap your head around without metrics. To that end, a bunch of members of the Ubuntu community have worked together to create a survey that'll help those of us working on various parts of Ubuntu understand where we need to improve and how we can do better.
