Each survey has to generate information that guides and informs decisions.  

For each question we should ask ourselves, why do we need to know this? What 
is the reason for this query.  What advance - enhancement - feature will be 
generated or affected by a majority response for one particular selection.  


So each survey therefore, has to have a specific reason for being.  We have 
come to a point where there are a number of possibilities.  We need user input 
to steer us down the right road.

For this questionairre we have not decided what these parameters are, we have 
the cart before the horse.

Our users do us a huge favour by participating in a survey, for them it is a 
substantial cost in time and effort for no percievable reward.  While it is 
necessary obviously to think of the value of the survey to the project we need 
to think about our users and what encourages them to take part and how do we 
make the survey a pleasurable experience for them.

This is a statistic that is a warning about not considering our respondents.  
The old OOo had a "registration" thing at first run.  It directed the user to 
a user survey.  It was long and complex and badly targeted. Several hundred 
million downloads resulted in a few tens of thousands respondents, an almost 
unmeasurable fraction of one percent response.

Perhaps the first survey we should conduct is a survey about what sort of 
surveys our users would respond to.

Cheers

PS I have made a few comments on the wiki page with regard to the questions 
there.
