Do you have any comments or suggestions for the GNOME team? === How will you handle all the various comments you'll get? Git received 9000 answers.. who is going to read them all and summarize? Things I'd like to know: - Multiple choice options to understand the responders technical skills. So if they've submitted a patch, contributed code somewhere, paid to write software, maintain some open source code, etc. That is IMO a nicer way to understand their skills can someone to rate themselves. - If they use KDE/XFCE/something - other things to later on be able to determine if the survey is biased in some way. Don't have concrete ideas atm. -- Regards, Olav _______________________________________________ desktop-devel-list mailing list desktop-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/desktop-devel-list
