Hi all
when I did setup survey site for deciding default theme for 3.4, I've
also got idea to get more feedback from our users. This can help us in
making some decisions about future development.
We can take inspiration from Git User's Survey [1] (check last survey
and results [2]).
I think the survey should be open for pretty long time, let's say two
months, to acquire as much feedback as possible.
I've started collecting questions on wiki [3], basically starting with
questions based on the Git ones.

I think 5, 6 and 8 should have one more option - "I don't know" (and
most questions should get some comment box).
14. Most people won't know what HTML5 is, it's better to add some
explanation, or skip this altogether. HTML 5 availability is based on
minimum supported browser versions, users won't care. Software should
work :)
15. Add "never used any"
Otherwise looks ok. After completing questions I think we should give
this survey to some phpMyAdmin beginner and ask for comments to find
potentially difficult questions (ones that result in user quitting the
survey). Also, I don't think we should go over 20 questions. If we
have more, we should decide which ones to use in the actual survey.

Some Suggestions:
@Question 1,2:
Interesting to know but how does that help for the future development?
@ Question 6,7
Some people might use phpmyadmin e.g. for MariaDB alone, so question 6
probably should probably be made dependent on question 7, whereas
question 7 maybe should be changed into "For which Database do you use
phpMyAdmin"
@ Question 8 & 9
'proficiency' sound complicated, how about 'knowledge'?
@ Question 14
Maybe this question should be changed into something like "Does your
browser support the following technologies and have you enabled them?"
Plus some side note which major browser versions support html5 properly.

How about moving these to the bottom of the list and making the optional.

How about: "What features you desperately need to manage your DB, but
are not available in phpMyAdmin?"? Well, maybe worded a bit better and
with a textarea for the feedback. I'd say we won't get much response
here, as people hate writing in surveys and prefer to only tick boxes,
but we might get one or two gems...

Basically, we have the feature tracker for that, but maybe some users
don't find the way to it. ;)

I believe that regarding surveys, the shorter the better.
Questions I would remove:
------------------------
What country do you live in (country of residence)?
How old are you (in years)?
Which phpMyAdmin version(s) are you using? (because we know that host
providers and distros do not tend to upgrade quickly; knowing what's the
version used by the persons answering the survey won't give us the full
picture)
Which MySQL version(s) are you using? (I'm not sure what will be the
benefit of knowing this)
Which PHP version(s) do you use to run phpMyAdmin? (because it might be
difficult for them to answer)

I think it's good to know some basic information about our users.

providers and distros do not tend to upgrade quickly; knowing what's the
version used by the persons answering the survey won't give us the full
picture)
You can usually install own copy of phpMyAdmin, so this still gives us
the information how much are people willing to be up to date.
Which MySQL version(s) are you using? (I'm not
sure what will be the
benefit of knowing this)
To see how many people can use features introduced in new MySQL
versions.
Which PHP version(s) do you use to run phpMyAdmin?
(because it might be
difficult for them to answer)
Indeed it might be.
Rate your own proficiency with SQL
I find interesting to find out whether phpMyAdmin is mostly used by
novices or by people who have great knowledge of SQL, but are lazy to
write it :-).
