[Ql-Users] [QL-You Sir!] The Spring 2011 QL Survery

2011-02-13 Thread Plastic
Hi all,

Please help the community by completing this 24-question survey. It will
take less than three minutes to complete.

The reason for this survey is that there have been others, but they have
either been internal to an organization or the results haven't been made
entirely public. This survey will have fully public results, and the
questions are designed to see what people are using right now, and what they
see themselves using in the future. The information will feed back to
programmers and hardware designers, and shine a light on Quanta and QL World
and how they can improve too.

The questions have been checked and amended by a few of the "movers and
shakers" of the QL community.

No personal information is collected (unless you volunteer it) and I will
not collect any identifying information or include it.

The survey is here:

Please take just three minutes to check it out and give some responses - the
whole community will benefit.

Hi all,

15 responses so far, and already some definite and surprising trends
forming.

If anyone with QUANTA or QL Today or any other sites would like to put the
survey URL on their site, please feel welcome to do so. The more responses,
the more meaningful it is.

I'm really surprised by a couple of the answers - not at all what I
expected.

You didn't ask the age of the repliers. Do you think that that variable would 
have been significant in an analysis of the answers?

Not at this stage.

I plan to do another more detailed survey in a couple of months that looks
at the users and their experience levels.

This survey is aimed squarely at finding out what people use and how they
use it. It's the information that's most urgently needed. I wanted to keep
this survey short and informative, and allow it to lead the next survey -
along with feedback like this.

In the next survey I will look at users' age, sex, how long they have been a
QLer, how they came to be a QLer and so forth.
