Hello,
After quite some time passed cleaning up the replies, writing the
processing scripts and learning CSS, I'm proud to announce the
results[1] of the Survey on Debian Usage I posted in April 2004[2].
http://people.debian.org/~enrico/survey/survey.php
The presentation pages provide some views on the results, which I
consider quite successful in giving various insights on our community,
as well as some interesting ideas to direct further development[3].
Due to the massive amount of replies that I received and the qualitative
nature of the survey, it took me a long time to process the results. For
the same reasons, and because I have limited knowledge of qualitative
metodologies, I have problems providing too much interpretation of the
data.
Nevertheless, I'm very happy to see this data coming together, I've
learnt a lot while processing them, and I'm sure that people spending
some time wandering around the results will learn something as well.
A personal, big thank you to all the people who replied to the survey
and all the people who gave me suggestions along the way.
Ciao,
Enrico

[3] For example, I started writing buffy[4] pushed by noticing that
many people perceive Debian as used mainly for servers and
development, but use it mainly for e-mail :)
