<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Yeah I think we can just call it something like "QGIS Community Profile: Joe Bloggs" or if we want it to be a little more adulatory than that then something like "QGIS Community Member of the Month".</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"> </div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Here is a brain dump of some standard questions we could ask:</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"> </div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">1) Can you share a map of where you live?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">2) What do you do in the QGIS community?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">3) How do you use QGIS, which are the most important features for you?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">4) How much volunteer time do you spend on QGIS each month?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">5) What areas do you most need help with in respect to the work you do with QGIS?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">6) How long have you been involved on the QGIS project?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">7) If there was one thing you could add or improve in QGIS or the QGIS community, what would it be?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">8) Do you have any other final thoughts about your life as a QGIS community member?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">9) How can people contact you / follow you on social media?</div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"> </div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;"> </div>
<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family: arial,helvetica,sans-serif; font-size: small;">Order could be rearranged as needed.</div>

<div class="">Yeah its a really good idea. I think we could just make a standard set of questions and ask a different person each month to participate. If we do it that way it does not need to be too much overhead to actually keep doing.</div>
