This page contains a draft follow up survey for FOSS4G 2011, which will be sent out to conference attendees on Tuesday or Wednesday, Sep 20 or 21. The main aim of this survey is to provide information to help us plan future FOSS4G events and OSGeo activities. We want to maintain a reasonable balance between obtaining a good amount of useful information, while not taking too much of people's time and making sure it is easy to fill out so we get a good number of responses. 

Please feel free to edit / add ideas / make suggestions. But the FOSS4G Chair reserves the right to make edits to come up with the final version :).

Please fill out this survey to help us plan future FOSS4G events and continue to make them even better!
