Better idea, 3 surveys

1- Users Market Survey

2-Coding Survey

3-Follow-up Survey using the 2 for developers

Maybe even more follow-up survey if there is some ambiguous decisions?

Well, I had to answer the questions, to get to pages 2 and 3. But I didn't submit, in the end.

Because of the question about who I think should be using Inkscape (more in the future), I think you need to restrict this survey to the kind of developers who work with the code. Even though I pay attention to development issues, it doesn't matter to me who should be using Inkscape more. I'd love to see Inkscape be more popular, and see more people using it, but it doesn't matter to me who they are.

All best, brynn

Hello all, I have been in communication with Martin and Maren about assisting with some marketing on the project. I am a designer and marketer by profession. You can read the conversation that got this all started if you're interested, but in short, I feel passionately about helping Inkscape succeed.

I am emailing to get your feedback on a survey I would like to begin collecting responses for. As I see it, growing users and growing contributors are two sides of the same coin for any successful FOSS project. This particular survey is focusing on the user side of that coin. My intent is to help develop criteria for, and consensus around, who our primary markets for Inkscape should be. A free and open application is of course for anyone to use for any reason. However, because our resources in marketing this application are finite, we really need to clarify and prioritize to have any hope for success.

So here is the survey: https://goo.gl/forms/ReZkSjOMokkaoSln2

Don't spend your time responding (yet). I would like to make sure I'm covering the right user segments here, so do email me with your thoughts. I'm glad to meet you all and thanks for the help!

Ryan Gorley @ Dijt
