Hi,
I don't think this kind of feedback wizard is very useful :
1) There is a lot of sociological theory that proves that multiple choices
questionaries gives back a distorted version of truth. If we translate the
questions in multiple language the problems become even worse due to cultural
differences.
2) There are already plenty of channels (mailing lists, bugzilla, irc) of
interaction between the developpers and our users.
3) Who is going to sort and interpret the results and digest them for the
developpers ?
What would be much more useful is a voluntary feedback system of how people
use kde :
- What configuration options they have used or not
- What applets they have in kicker
- What applications they have launched last month
- What documentation they have read...
Having some kind of statistical engine telling us what is popular and
unpopular would help next time we need to clear some dead wood in KDE, or
make it possible to find some patterns of use and adapt our defaults to these
patterns, or understand what is easy to find in KDE and what is badly
explained or publicized
Cheers,
Charles
