Hi all,

Thanks Alvaro for posting the results. Out of curiosity, do we know how many users answered the survey? and how many are postgresql users, how many oracle ones?

Regarding the "less bugs" answers to two of the questions: I understand it means that bugs have been found and fixed. If so, I hope those fixes have been contributed back to the community. If it's the case, there should be less bugs as users participate in the community.

Hi Emma,

The survey was answered by about 10 institutions but I don't know which ones are using postgresql or oracle.

I think that the less bugs idea is what everyone would want for the toolkit and might not be necessarily according to the bugs found and fixed in their installations, besides I'd say that not everybody is used to contribute their code (even though it would be the best for the community as you said), it takes some time to contribute code, anyway we need to motivate people to contribute their fixes or at least report about the errors found.
