ENTICE Survey Results David Foster IT Aug2010
Survey • Piggybacked on the “Desktop Computing” survey. • Reduced scope, only a few key questions asked. • See if there is an indication for a more detailed survey. • Not the best questions and perhaps not all well formulated, but interesting results nevertheless. • Wide audience (survey was sent to all CERN users) • Most interesting results were in the “free format” part of the survey: tell us what you think ... A lot did! • Results (from >1000 people) still being analysed. What is presented today are preliminary.
Accumulated response over time Time Each unit is half a day
The “other” category produced a long list of known (Python, vi, emacs, perl, PHP) and exotic (TextWrangler, SeaMonkey, KompoZer, plin, redmine, ezPublish etc)
“Other” produced things such as Root, Atlas Data Formats, Mathematica, .asp pages, Tex, .vi labview files, vhdletc ...
“Other” includes: AISMedia, JIRA, twiki, but not too much in fact.
Conclusions • Survey was well received • It is part of an overall plan to improve IT communications with the community. • Results will be presented at the next ITSRM • IT will act on a number of clear trends that emerged: • Macintosh Support • Opensource: the first example being a Web CMS. • IT is engaged in understanding how to be more flexible and respond faster with a “community style” support structure. • ENTICE: The Opensource services will be in this style.
Known Drupal “Interest” • CERN Website (Bulletin, public, user and press) • IT Website • PH/SFT • Service Catalogue (GS/IT) • KTT (as part of the CERN website) • HR • FI and Procurement • Library
