Hi Everyone,
About a week ago I posted an email about a couple of thoughts I had about
helping Euphoria to grow and improve.
Basically my ideas came down to this:
1. Organize a priority list by the use of a survey to determine what
Euphoria Tools/Libraries/Enhancements users would find beneficial.
The results could help Rob and others determine what the Euphoria
community finds important.
2. Give incentive to Rob and other authors (by way of financial rewards)
to produce/implement the above tools/libraries/enhancements.
One way to achieve this was by RDS sponsorship/partnership of some of these
projects.
"My" summary of the responses:
1. Only one or two people mentioned that they would be interested in
participating in a survey.
This to me could indicate:
a. I didn't communicate my idea very well.
b. The vast majority of users are happy with the current Euphoria
capabilities.
2. Everyone agreed it would be nice to reward authors of "good" quality
software by way of financial payment but didn't believe RDS needed to be
involved.
If anyone believes I perceived the responses differently to what I have
summarized please let me know .... private email is probably better
(smithr at ix.net.au) ... so as not to fill the list.
Thanks
Ray Smith

Sorry Ray, it was the private email bit at the end
that got me, but I just re-read it, and it was pretty
clear.

I guess my last email didn't communicate my thoughts very well!
To put it another way I emailed to say that since very very few people
showed any interest in the idea of a survey I have given up.
