+ ### Some statistics about ongoing first Git Rev News Readers Survey
20
+
21
+ The [ Git Rev News Reader Survey] ( https://survs.com/survey/jo07oxsaom ) was announced
22
+ in the [ previous edition] ( https://git.github.io/rev_news/2023/05/31/edition-99/ )
23
+ with the goal to gather responses from the community to help improve Git Rev News.
24
+ Unfortunately, there we got only 11 responses to the survey (among 250 visits).
25
+ Compare this number to 3236 to 11498 responses to various Git User's Surveys...
26
+
27
+ The results cannot be considered statistically significant, but here is what we have
28
+ gathered so far:
29
+
30
+ + Most enjoyed Git Rev News section was "Developer Spotlight (aka Interview)",
31
+ followed closely by "Discussions (General, Reviews, Support)".
32
+ Least enjoyed was the "Releases" section.
33
+ + The order of Git Rev News section(s) agrees with readers expectations,
34
+ with the exception of the "Releases" section thougt to better be near bottom,
35
+ and the "Other News (aka Links)" to better be in the middle, swapping the
36
+ order of those two sections.
37
+ + The survey gathered various interesting suggestions, among others:
38
+ + more developer (or even _ user_ ) interviews,
39
+ + include brief description of what is in the link,
40
+ + interviews with some of authors of Git tools,
41
+ + include short articles about how to do source control and how Git is being used,
42
+ + or add an * editorial* piece to start off the newsletter,
43
+ + add an index of previous Git Rev News (e.g. 'who have we interviewed')
44
+ + For the "Discussion" section the suggestion include adding headlines or subheadings,
45
+ having some images (e.g. diagrams or screenshots) where appropriate,
46
+ and adding TLDR summary of longer articles (or making article shorter).
47
+ + There were an idea of providing a simple web form to suggest contributors to be interviewed.
48
+ + [ VonC] ( https://stackoverflow.com/users/6309/vonc ) was suggested for an interview,
49
+ and Jeff King (aka peff) and Junio C. Hamano for re-interview.
50
+
51
+ There will be further analysis of the responses in the future.
52
+ Thank very much all of you that participated in the Reader Survey.
