We have at our disposal the UC Davis Lime Survey instance we used for
the elections.

Creating a questionnaire for the CMs is not really difficult, I
volunteer for that task, following the work done as CRO.

Lime Survey has by far, more flexibility and question types than google
forms. We can set up the survey for Charter Members, open to everyone,
public or private, timed or not, whatever.

Cheers.

I didn't actually test conference events specifically, and it's only a
correlation (not causation). But it would be easy to if there's a good
list somewhere of events by country (might have to be by region
analysis). And of course as I mentioned in the talk testing local
chapter activity too.

Thanks,
Alex

Kind of wish people were thee for Alex's talk on OsGeo live metrics. We don't 
need to guess on the value of of local events - Alex has the numbers to show 
why local conferences are amazing - they motivate more downloads. 

I also had a talk on OSGeo as a software foundation - thanks to those who 
attended.

These meta-talks were tricky to schedule in a conference where the value comes 
from using software.

[OSGeo-Discuss] prepare questionnaire for our members, about osgeo mission, goals review, ...

2014-09-18 Thread Jachym Cepicky
Hi,

great mails after FOSS4G. I wish, we had chance to talk about stuff
openly face2face on FOSS4G, but there was no timeslot, nor members
(not so many).

If you agree, I (any help welcomed) volunteer for creating
questionnaire (using google forms) with questions to our charter
members. The results should be:

* review of OSGeo goals as described on [1]
* feedback from local chapters, why they need OSGeo
* feedback from projects, future projects - why did they want to be
osgeo project, why do they still want to remain osgeo project, why
there are not so many new osgeo projects
* feedback from members: why are you member, what are you expecting from osgeo
* ... others ...

Someone else might put it into mail in more structured way.

Any agreement? Co-volunteer? Good idea? Absolutely bad idea?

Jachym
