		<description>Hi Russell,

Thank you for the feedback. It was a difficult survey to put together and we tried to not make too many assumptions. We wanted things like income and years spent in different areas (which might have been more clear than &quot;how long&quot;) to get an idea about the various demographics of our community. We certainly didn&#039;t assume most people would be working full time and had some examples of non-full time people test it prior to rollout :)

We didn&#039;t put every single technology into the options (we obviously couldn&#039;t) but I agree that we should have included Debian. Generally we are quite happy with it and we did get some of the community to test it prior to release so we are sure that we will get some good analysis out of it.

Thank you for participating :)</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;When doing something difficult like sys-admin work it’s expected that a command to wipe out your work will be immediately next to something innocuous&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Errr, no it isn&#039;t. Not unless the application in question was written in the sixties or by a violent psychopath.
