> When thinking about how to improve the KDE documentation situation, I realized

> what our user's requirements actually are.

> What about doing a survey and ask users about their current use of
> documentation and their ideas how it could be improved?
>
> We could ask questions to find out:
> - How do users get help?
> - How frequently do users use the different tools and systems (KHelpcenter,
> what's this help, online manuals, userbase, forums, google, etc.)
> - Do users have Internet connections?
> - Do users need printable manuals?
> - Would users be willing to contribute to documentation?
> - What kind of tools and formats do documentation contributors prefer?
> - How much do users rely on translated manuals?
> - What parts of the manuals are users using?
> - What would users like to see in addition to what we already have?
>
> How do you like this idea?
>

Note we have a poll on the forums asking about khc, see

The number of votes is not yet impressive, but i wanted to just add
that to this topic.
