Improvement suggestions

[Ton Plomp]

Hello,

I have the following improvement suggestions for the CR:

For a developer feedback is food.

It would be nice if users automatically got a poll two weeks after the download asking the following:

What do you think about %CR%:

• Looked at it, not worth trouble using
  
• Looked at it, is OK can't use it right now
  
• Use it sometime
  
• Use it regularly unmodified
  
• Use it regurlarly modified

There is possibly an interim option. Every submitted code has a dedicated support thread with it. You, as a developer can post a reply there to solicit feedback if you wish.

I agree with Mike - if you want feedback, then solicit it throught the forum associated with the submission. Personally, I don't like it when websites that I've downloaded something from require me to log in as the first step of the download process so they can send me "so-how-do-you-like-our-product?" emails later on - I think that should be up to the developer and/or user to initiate, as automatically generated emails like that can seem pushy. Perhaps, if someone downloads a LAVAcr submission, then we could automatically subscribe the user to the associated support thread?
