Hernan, There is always room for improvement, but I think you are missing the point here. Of course, the poll is narrow (*all* polls are)... We could collect more data, but there is no poll without a question to answer, and here the real question is "what for?" What questions do you want to answer when making a poll. And then, when you see narrowness, I see clarity: I just have three questions that want answered (well, and a "hidden" one, but that's for later :). In fact, two of your three examples of questions were present in my first draft, and I removed them because they didn't provide more insight in *my* questions, which are pretty straightforward. Yes, I missed some other interesting questions for what I'm looking for, e.g. "why are you still using an older version of Pharo?", but well... you cannot make it perfect :) Of course, everybody has their own questions, and of course, if you want a "pharo census", we need to make much more questions... but that was off what I was looking for :) Esteban ps: yes, we can prepare a "pharo census", that can be interesting information too, and I would really like to have your help on preparing it... but lets complete this one small poll first.

I'm doing it, saying that a brief poll could be better is pushing Pharo developers to make things better. Don't you think so?
Pharo is open project after all. Or at least, if you having a great idea but have no time/resources to do it, why you don't proposing it or asking around who interested in implementing it, but sitting there waiting to be asked ..
Yes, I'd like to be asked for the right questions. Your questions tell me your interests much as your lack of questions. I'm proposing more accurate polls... like "which packages do you use often?", "which non-core Collection classes do you need more?", "do you use Traits?", etc. Nobody is obliged to answer any poll, if too many questions, you just don't answer :)
