Surveying was the first thing that I proposed to Jos when I gave him my personal opinion about this strategy. I suggested asking on my university campus about their habits on the computer. I could get a good sample of ideas and habits people have when it comes to the desktop. I could take it further and ask more about OS's in general, what they would change, what doesn't work, etc.
So I am offering to do the same here at the University. We should come with some possible questions.

Hello Andy, I think a survey as to what features University students value in an OS could be interesting in and of itself. You should do it, have a great time in the process, and score some serious brownie points too (especially if you are currently enrolled in a statistics class!). For the purposes of shaping a strategy for OpenSUSE, I don't see much value in going outside the existing user base. When designing questions for existing users, you can assume a higher degree of familiarity with the product, thus enabling you to ask more specific questions. It may even be possible to utilize infrastructure that already exists in the forum. cwight -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-project+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-project+help@opensuse.org
