Hi,
I think that's a way better number of people
participating than MOST commercial companies would ever dream of to make a
market research on. They usually do their researches based on a sample of
2-3,000 people. Gnome would have 100 times that, and so I do take it that it

Perhaps a feature request feature could be implemented into the
GNOME desktop, similar to bug buddy.
I have not thought about the user interface, but it would be very easy
to get some metadata from the user, with questions like 'What
