As I said elsewhere, I agree a survey would be useful, but would prefer that we initially focus more on DebConf12 rather than abstract preferences.
We might add more general questions in a second section, depending on the technology used, but people will tend to fail to answer any survey that isn't kept very short. Here's a pre-draft set of questions/responses to show the kind of thing I had min mind. How many times have you physically attended DebConf? (including DebConf12) Did you physically attend DebConf12? attended (in person): Rate quality of DebConf12 for Talks Scheduled discussions Unscheduled discussions Social events What would you like to see copied from DebConf12 at future DebConfs? What would you like to see improved in future DebConfs compared to DebConf12? didn't attend in person: Factors in not attending: Talks not interesting to me Don't like attending conferences Too expensive Don't have enough vacation time to attend Other factors What would make you more likely to attend future DebConfs? Rate quality of DebConf12 for Talks Scheduled discussions Unscheduled discussions Social events watched videos: Watched streams during DebConf? Watched recorded video since DebConf? Rate quality of videos Other comments on videos What would you like to see improved for people watching the live streams? What would you like to see improved about the recorded videos? -- Moray _______________________________________________ Debconf-team mailing list Debconf-team@lists.debconf.org http://lists.debconf.org/mailman/listinfo/debconf-team
