Consolidated results of the public Webizen survey

Consolidated results of the public Webizen survey by Coralie Mercier.

You may recall my post: A Greater Voice for Individuals in W3C – Tell Us What You Would Value [Deadline: 30 Sept 2014]. The W3C had a survey on what would attract individuals to the W3C.

Out of 7,264,774,500 (approximately as of 19:53 EST) potential voters, Coralie reports that 205 answers were received.

Even allowing for those too young, too infirm, in prison, stranded in reality shows, that is a very poor showing.

Some of the answers, at least to me, appear to be spot on. But given the response rate, it will be hard to reach even irrational conclusions about individuals at the W3C. A Ouija board would have required less technology and be about as accurate.

If you don’t want a voice at the W3C for individuals, not filing a survey response was a step in that direction. Congratulations.

PS: I don’t mean to imply that the W3C would listen to N number of survey responses saying X. Maybe yes and maybe no. But non-participation saves them from having to make that choice.
