[Fedora-marketing-list] "Fedora's metrics have ripple effect"...Linux.com

[Robert M. Albrecht]

Hi,

just q quick idea to get more accurate numbers and perhaps an idea of
which people use it.

Some kind of voting-system:

- user-counter
- user-skill (newbie, power-user, admin)
- some important applications or usage-scenarios (desktop, mobile
desktop, app-server, ...)
- personal or business
- how many installations
- single OS or dual-boot with another operating system
- linux-upgrade or switcher from another os
- hardware-profile from hal or something like that

perhaps even integrated into anaconda (Would you like to help the
fedora-project and answer five questions / supply your hw-profile ?) or
a link in the first page of the release-notes ?

cu romal
