Hi,
Thanks for the reply. My proposal for the end date is January 31. This
is also the date I mention in the survey. I would summarize the
results at the beginning of February. I can also do intermediary
summaries before that, but it would be nice to run the survey for at
least a month and a half (half December + full January), as the
holidays are approaching.
WDYT?

Hi devs,
In 2009 and 2012 the xwiki.org project launched some surveys about
features to have in XWiki in priority:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures2009
(results at: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Blog/FeatureStatus20120119
)
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures2012
(results at: http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/FeatureSurveyResult201204
)
I thought it would be nice to launch a similar survey in 2013 in order
to give the project some information to prepare the XWiki 6.x roadmap.
I took
2012's survey content as a model and created a new version for 2013:
http://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/SurveyXWikiFeatures2013
Sounds like a good idea :)
The results of the survey would be published on
xwiki.org and shared
with the committers list.
I built the form using Google Docs, since they offer a nice free
solution. However there's a limitation when it comes to sending
notifications for the form. A Google account would be needed for the
committers@ list in order to be able to send notifications to it each
time the form is filled in. Is it possible for such an account to be
created? Alternatively, I can send a detailed summary to the list when
the survey comes to an end (beginning of February), since I will be
working on a summary for xwiki.org.
I don’t have a strong opinion on this. Obviously it would be better if the results were
sent to the committers list IMO. However creating some account for the XWiki Committers
would be a maintenance headache.
So I guess I’d be more in favor of letting you gather the results and posting the full
results on a blog post on xwiki.org when the survey closes.
BTW what would be duration of the survey? We need some end date.
Thanks

Please let me know if you're OK with sending
the survey to the users
list and if so, which alternative you prefer for the
notifications/update on the results. If the response is positive I'll
send the survey on the users list.
Thanks,
Silvia
