Google docs might allow more "flexibility" in answering. You could
set up a form - and allow answering by people who receive the link.

(and all),<br>
Per the IRC meeting, I've come up with a possible
questionnaire that we can spam. Currently it's all
text, but it can be converted easily enough. What
platform should we stick it on for the
question/answers? I can do a free surveymonkey unless
someone has something better to suggest.<br>
<br>
Suggestions as to questions/answers welcome from all.
It is a first draft.<br>
