I'm not convinced that the front page is the best place to have a user
survey. The community section (where it has been placed) seems like a
more appropriate location for a "fun" feature like this.

Looking at the front page, I don't see that any items are of less
importance than the user survey and could be replaced. I don't agree
with the suggestion that the "featured user" box be removed to make way
for the survey, as this is an important feature that will help
PostgreSQL to get new users. (There are more quotes coming, so it
shouldn't be a problem to populate it.) While it's certainly essential
that the new website caters to the existing community, the front page is
the opportunity to show off PostgreSQL to those who *aren't* already
users. Therefore, that featured user box is probably the most important
item on the front page.
