RE: [xul-talk] Poll Update: What do you plan to use XAML for?

2004-10-29 Thread Arron Ferguson





My take on all this is that this is just too "new and emerging" to get a
really good consensus for where XAML's user base is. I'm sure as time
goes on this will change of course.

  I've highlighted the CodeProject XAML poll a while
ago on the XAML Developers Group (aka xaml-talk). The
CodeProject XAML poll tallied up more than a thousand
votes but as you might expect the majority (>50%) was
honest enough and voted for "I have no idea what XAML
is." only 45 brave souls voted for "Yes, I use XAML."

 See
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/xaml-talk/message/9 for
details.

That or maybe the XAML developpers are gathering somewhere else. If it was posted on a 
site like codeproject.com or something
similar, there would be more votes I think.

   Well, I guess the voter turn out reflects the interest in XAML. The XAML Developers 
Group, for example, currently has less than
thirty members. 

   I'm doing my best to promote the XAML poll and you're more than welcome to sign up 
your friends but I doubt - and I don't mean to
offend you - that they are intested in XAML.

  Here's the standing as of October, 28th:
o To create windows forms 5 votes (27.78%)
o To create animation 3 votes (16.67%)
o To create web forms/web pages 3 vote (16.67%)
o To create technical diagrams 2 vote (11.11%)
o To create still images 2 vote (11.11%)
o To create print documents 2 vote (11.11%)
o Other 1 vote (5.56%)
   I don't mean to offend, but the voter sample you have here just 
isn't statistically significant. You can't expect solid information from 
a poll with only 18 people voting. One could poll their friends and 
family in the course of a single day and get that many voters. Is there 
a way we can get more meaningful poll results?
