<PRE>Re: Survey
Any distro who does not know the user usage is working in the dark.
Mageia should (just like Mandriva) have a quick initial questionnaire
offering an account to its registering service. This is necessary for
marketing purposes and for planning purposes. There would be nothing
worse that to work without knowing how many people are using your distro
and for what reasons. Users are used to agreeing to EULA's (user
agreements) and, yes, in general they do blindly agree to them. But, if
they agree to the same on Mageia and it was used to keep stats on the
number of installations in use then that would be great.
This would, of course, have to be done only once at the initial
installation (or even distro Update). I think most users would
understand the need for this. Mageia should also make it clear that
there is no storing of personal data being done at this step.
Mageia could offer and promote the use of their forums somewhere else
once the distro is installed and working just as a piece of information.
It could be made in such a way as to make the user feel like they are
now owner of a community driven distro and that in being an owner, they
now have a voice in its development and direction. It's a community effort.
