Open Stack

I like the idea of having optional sections to the User Survey. I think there is per-project info that PTLs are looking for that apply to different Operators, so allowing them to choose makes sense.

I would also be interested in including a couple of questions on future usage models/capabilities that they don't need today, but can see them becoming important over the horizon.

I agree with Jonathan, in detail :

* making it a regular, scheduled thing : everybody in the community would know and expect every 6 month (or 3 month ?) to have the opportunity to give feedback, especially if it is pre / post cycle (ex. : January -> July -> January …)
* Making it a community wide effort and consolidated in one ‘interaction’ / survey : having the ability to check/uncheck which project you want to give feedback about would be very useful and probably help focus each set of question to each project goals / needs
* A main section would be, in my opinion, the right place to get all the general project-independant information we want to gather and any related question to the community efforts
