I wrote in that thread too why I dont like such fast releases and at least someone else asked too to give more options on that one question, on the developer mailing list its kinda only some people who are writing not reflecting all the developers such an survey maybe reach more of them and then the answer about such an important question shouldnt be reduced to 3 little options a handfull people decided on, that wouldnt reflect what people really want if they cant choose an real answer.

The idea of the release schedule question is to form consensus on the options that have already been proposed in the "1.9 release planning <https://groups.google.com/d/topic/django-developers/MTvOPDNQXLI/discussion>" thread. If you have a different idea, please propose it there.

    I like the idea of an survey, but find the release question with
    only 3 options quite limited, how about to allow there to put own
    numbers instead of giving fixed answers or at least an other field?

    All questions are optional so you can just click through it to
    view the questions. We'll probably clear any responses before its
    finalized anyway.

    Let us know if you think we should make any additions or changes.

        Great idea.
        The questions look good enough to me.

        I love django-apps or libraries shipped in python packages.
        One of the reason I love Django is the fact that it didn't
        frenetically add stuff to the framework just because it's cool.
        The good thing of python packages is that you can get some
        data from pypi (downloads) and github (clones). But we can't
        do that with contrib apps unfortunately.

            I had an idea to conduct a survey to get a sense of how
            developers are using Django. I first had the idea when
            the question of maintenance of the Oracle GIS backend
            came up. We really have no idea whether or not anyone is
            actually using that backend, and it would be helpful to
            know so we are not wasting resources on unused features.
            Also there's the question of how often to release Django.
            I think it would be nice to make that decision based on
            some data from the community.

            Is anyone is interested in coordinating such a survey
            (collating questions, preparing the online survey, etc.).

            Some question ideas to get started:

            Which database backend(s) do you use?
            [ ] Checkbox for each one

            Which contrib apps do you use?
            [ ] Checkbox for each one

            How often would you like to see new major version of
            Django released?
            [ ] List some options, probably between 6 and 9 months.

            Describe which version of Django you use (check all the
            apply):
            [ ] I only use long-term support releases.
            [ ] I upgrade to the latest stable version as quickly as
            possible.
            [ ] I run off of master.
            [ ] I upgrade Django when the version I am using is
            nearing the end of its support (or after).
            [ ] I don't bother upgrading Django, even if it becomes
            unsupported.
