It's a good question and I didn't capture that kind of information - though I 
did skim through the list of emails that were provided and I didn't notice too 
many .edu or related addresses, but that's not definitive for sure.  There is 
another set of questions around improvements that tied in nicely too.  

The takeaway from my perspective - majority of voters think docs/training 
material need significant improvement and that they believe having OSGeo 
software in the labs at academic institutions is a good idea.  I am guessing 
that "business" didn't score higher on the first question simply because most 
businesses aren't thinking that they "need" OSGeo to do something to help them. 
 Lots more conversation to have to get our finger on the true pulse there 
though too!

It's going to be a fun summer hashing through some of these ideas for sure.
