[16:53] Is this multiple choice or free-form?
[16:53] free form, I'll take your responses to make a survey later
[16:54] Ok. I would describe myself as a heavy user of drupal.org: I use almost all facets of it, but particularly the issue tracker, project management tools, and forums.
[16:54] I'm a developer, a documenter, and a user supporter. ;)
[16:54] cdone
[16:54] How often do you visit Drupal.org?

[16:55] done.
[16:55] Question 3: When you visit Drupal.org, how long do you spend on the site?

[16:55] Question 4: What would you describe as your goals for visiting Drupal.org?
[16:56] Mainly to keep abreast of my issues and interact with the community on bug fixes and features.
[16:56] done.
[16:56] Question 5. What is easy to do on Drupal.org?
[16:56] oh that's a hard one. :)
[16:57] Easy to see announcements of major happenings in the community, easy to access personally relevant info (my tracker, my issues...), easy to see links that are valuable to contributors.
[16:57] done.
[16:57] Question 6. What is hard to do on Drupal.org?
[16:57] Searching. Finding the information you need quickly. Navigating the site.
[16:57] done.
[16:58] Last question: Is there anything else important about Drupal.org that we haven't discussed?
[16:58] One of the aspects I'm struggling with is how to make Drupal.org useful to all the various people coming to the site and coming there for information. So I think in survey form, it might be useful to group people according to their needs on the site.
[16:59] The hardest parts is that drupal.org does A LOT of stuff.... so figuring out what the goals are for various people would be a great thing.
[16:59] done.
