<PRE>>><i>
</I>I personally think it's a good idea but I'm curious about what Dwayne thinks.
After all he still is the maintainer of PyCrypto. I'm just a random passers-by.
>><i>
</I>
I feel the same way. Ideally, the survey can be a tool to help Dwayne. And also to help the Python maintainers: There was mention that there's no user feedback on crypto (in the "crypto to the stdlib" thread). Well, we can help change that.
I made some changes to the survey, as I thought all of your suggestions were good. Take another look, if you would.
><i> Here some comments on your poll-draft:
</I>><i> * It says "pycrypto annual user survey". "annual" really?
</I>I was attempting to be funny, tongue-in-cheek. Clearly, that failed.
Being less whimsical is fine. :)
><i> * Can you make the questions conditional? For example if in the first question "Do you currently use pycrypto?" I
</I>><i> answer "No", then the following questions don't make to much sense.
</I>I tried, and failed. It wouldn't progress at all then. With your broader
scope of the survey, the point has happily become moot, though.
><i> * maybe one could ask what cryptographic python library the people use. "pycrypto, ezpycrypto, cryptopp, pytomcrypt,
</I>><i> ..., custom implementation, other (which one?), none"
</I>Good idea.
><i> * I would maybe add the possibility for arbitrary comments. either regarding pycrypto or the poll itself.
</I>Okay. Plenty of long-text forms already, one more doesn't hurt.
