Hi Steve,
I don't think the survey is very long.
We could try to answer and then share it with a note on the top that
says how long it takes, so people can decide when to fill it.
Also I like when people have space to answer, because that motivates
insightful responses. It probably goes against the theory on how to make
a good survey but I believe it could be interesting to leave the space
for complex thoughts. I think complexity of thoughts is often ignored
and it's important to take good decisions.
Some specifics:
To the question about why Guix (Q5) I would add some flavor of "Free
Software".
About if people is paid for working on Guix (Q22), I think there's
something lost there even if the second answer can make it fit: people
that use Guix and they are not paid for contributing in Guix but
fixing/improving Guix sometimes is some consequence of their job. I
mean, they are paid for it, but their job is not to improve Guix, but
something else. It's tangential.
About the financial support (Q29) maybe it's possible to ask how much
people is open to give to Guix per month.
Those are my two cents. In general, I like the survey.
It's probably ok just to launch it than to try to make it perfect the
first time. We could run one per year and improve them according to the
answers we get. Those that don't really give us interesting information
we could just ignore.
Have you thought about what platform use?
I think we could do with Framasoft:

Thanks for taking the time to do this, Steve.
Cheers!
