Thread: User Survey poorly designed

User Survey poorly designed

From

Date:

The user survey is impossible to complete accurately for a typical OEM that is using postgres as part of an application. All those questions about “primary database”, hardware, etc. simply have no rational answers. So the survey excludes a significant chunk of the community.

Excuse me... but, can you provide then a good community survey, or join
those who want to create a good (and i mean really good) one? there have
been threads with this topic (about a community survey)...

I'm speaking by myself... but coming with a problem... and not trying to
solve it... its just adding more gas to the fire...
