Talking about users, what do people think of doing a survey of Forrest users.
What would be the purpose of this survey?
During the time that I've hung around the lists, I've noticed that often
times people start in the user-list, then slowly migrate to the dev-list and
some eventually end up as devs, which is just *great*.
However, I do think that we need to put in some more efforts to publicize
Forrest, make it more visible. Having an overlap between users and dev is not
only good, but IMHO necessary, but we still need to expand our user base.
We need to be a little careful about this. At the moment
we do not have sufficient developers to support a rush
of new users. That will take time away from doing development.
I prefer to not publicize too widely at this stage,
rather let the base grow by itself.
When we are ready to make a fanfare, then the ASF Public
Relations Committee will help us to do that properly.
+1, I personally think we should have a 1.0 release before
concentrating on promoting it.
