Ok - so we are planning to close the 2020 user survey on August 20, and I can circulate the raw, anonymized data at that time. If you would like it sooner (even though it won’t be a complete picture), let me know.

There isn’t a repo for the User Survey, but if you want, you can go through the existing survey to see all of the active responses. If there are any changes for the 2021 version (that will go live on August 21), please let us know by the end of July.

From me :) The answers to the 2019 survey are attached. We keep the answers private since it includes so much identifiable information (contact name, organization name, and deployment details) that respondents have requested to remain private. 



Let me know if there is anything else I can provide.
