Hi Rogan, I'm curious what the Evergreen Outreach Committee has discussed regarding how this data is to be used. Given that the linked survey appears to be very user focused at the moment, i.e. most if not all the questions are geared with the mindset that it applies to library institutions or groups who use Evergreen. But what about the rest of the community?
I wonder if it would be helpful to clarify the intent of this survey as targeting the Evergreen Community's users? And whether there would be separate surveys or approaches used similarly to gauge (and maybe identify) other aspects of our community. Off the top of my head, I would like to see representation in any final picture of our community to include also developers, individuals and companies alike, along with the various support organizations that participate in Evergreen's deployment and ongoing maintenance. Documentation, translation, etc.? Just what I was thinking.
