Is it me or is the poll different? The overall feeling on the Spanish
Blogdrake is to "like Mandriva a stable system with upgrades and
backports" at 58%. I imagine this means keeping to Mandriva release
cycle with no changes.

Wouldn't it make sense to have the same poll? I guess, this way we
still
get the results of a poll and a sense of the community feeling anyway.

I guess the old rule of polls applies:
depending on how you formulate the poll question and the description of the
options you can hugely influence the results...

Personally I think a poll without educating everyone about what exactly
each choice would mean is useless. We first need to elaborate detailed
alternatives before anyone can make an informed choice.


I agree. However, I would view these polls as both a way to inform people and a short measure of what the community members think at this point. It does hold a little value. I am not sure if we all really understand the meaning behind "rolling distro", but the polls still do give a little value at this point in time.

If we are going to poll communities, the community leaders should really get together and decide on the process and questions so that the information collected is valuable. But Ok, this way we still get a little data to look at.
