Survey summary information:
1954 responses for this survey (1592 full responses, 362 responses not completely filled out)
Of the full responses, I have yet to clean out junk responses - but I have the raw results and a PDF of the charts of results available - I am putting them on the wiki as we speak - since I don't want to send out large attachments to the mailing list. The PDF only shows completed responses - and the raw results are just that - all results.
