Keeping The Feedback Train Rolling

by | Tue 11 Oct 2011

Just a quick thank-you to everyone who has participated so far in the community feedback survey I sent out last week. So far **286** Ubuntu Members have responded to the survey, but I would like to encourage all of you who have not responded to reply. You should have a link in your INBOX.

Thanks also to the folks who have [provided me with email feedback](https://archivedblog.jonobacon.com/2011/10/07/feedback-welcome/) about where you see our community today and the opportunities and challenges it faces. I am also reaching out to some community members to perform a bunch of phone interviews to get more data; I want to ensure I have the clearest, informed picture available. If you would like to share your feedback, please do email me at *jono -AT- ubuntu –DOT– com*.

I am seeing some really interesting patterns forming in the feedback, both positive and negative, and I am looking forward to presenting this feedback soon and working with our community leaders to help drive some solutions forward to ensure our community remains as fun, inspiring and productive as possible.

Thanks, folks.
