Open Stack

First of all, sorry for not following up to this thread before when it was
raised!  My follow-up now is prompted by the new October 2016 data at
http://www.openstack.org/analytics, specifically for the 'Which OpenStack
Network (Neutron) drivers are you using?' question.

(Am I correct that the graphs on that page _are_ showing the _new_ survey
results?)

I agree also.

As a member of the team behind Calico, I'd also appreciate if Calico was an
option for this question.

I would agree with that in principle, but the graph currently at
www.openstack.org/analytics seems to indicate that you decided against
lumping less common options into an 'other' option.

More generally, is there a publically readable source somewhere for the
questions that the user survey asks, and the possible answers to each
question?  I didn't see an obvious repo for this at
http://git.openstack.org/cgit; and I tried searching the Internet, but that
is unfruitful because there is such wide coverage of the user survey
_results_ :-)

Many thanks,
