Patrick,

About two weeks ago, I asked castor-dev subscribers to contribute to the 
simple survey I came up with trying to do just that.
I volunteered to collect feedback and come up with a "Success stories" web 
page - a great marketing tool, especially useful when "selling" to 
high-level executives, skeptical of anything but Microsoft.

I have not gotten even ONE response (except for one user whom I contacted 
directly BEFORE I came up with the survey idea - and yes, they use Castor 
in production).

Is it because Castor is NOT used in production?

Or is it because people on this list are just not eager to give back?

I suspect the latter, unfortunately.

Fellow Castor users - please - take a few minutes and contribute. The 
survey should not take more than a few minutes.

My original message (with survey questions) is here:
