i've done a number of polls over a long period of time (and far from

These poll questions seem a little strange to me -

How are Q1 and Q2 different?

Q5 seems to mix up Operating Systems and programming languages. Surely
if you are going to have Linux and MacOSX, then you also need Windows
and Solaris. Also perhaps better to separate language and OS. The
language question may be irrelavant to some, as may the OS question.

Oh dear. My response to almost any survey is to say "you're asking the wrong
questions".

"Please rank the importance of each xslt version".

You need to ask people how important it is to them or their employers, not
how important they think it is to the world in general. Otherwise they are
guessing the information you are trying to discover.

You need to explain what you mean by "importance": it's about what the
impact/value is, or is likely to be, on some timescale. What timescale?

And you need to distinguish "It is important to me that this technology
should be available" from "I don't think this technology will have much
effect on us because I don't think it will be available on the timescale in
which we need it".
