Re: The Little Game - final version.

26 replies so far (~20% participation rate), great :)  On the other hand 83%
views came from direct links, and none from some real blog. If you are
interested in stats - http://bit.ly/KDE_Survey2011+

Cant agree more :) Even if we finally get 100 responses - its still doable.
Especially then most of the input is done with  "keep it short" in mind.
With closed question we would never have such survey. I hardly imagine all
interesting options (including hard ones)written down and approved.

Also multiple-choice surveys are less reliable, since the tone of the
suggested answers can manipulate answers by as much as 50% or more :(

Anyway, when survey will be closed (is 1 week enough?) I'd like to post
results and insights of the ideas collected. Is there a chance to get a blog
for that purpose added to planet KDE? If so, whom shall I contact?


Thanks,

Lukas
