The "preference" matrix tables are difficult to read but the results from the previous survey as I read them are: 1. Should the work be moved? Yes. 100% unanimous. 2. Should work remain in IndieUI? No. 100% unanimous (No or Prefer Not) 3. Where should Events be moved? Very difficult to parse a majority decision in this matrix table. Looks like it's either PF or WebApps, or a joint TF. 4. What should happen to User Context? Very difficult to parse a majority decision, again due to the matrix table. Looks like it's either PF or CSS, or a joint TF. 5. What should happen to the work that does not not fit in Events or User Context. Somewhat difficult to parse a majority decision, again due to the matrix table. Looks like it's either PF or recharter. Cite: https://www.w3.org/2002/09/wbs/54997/201503_planning/results It seems to me like the problem with the survey is the question format (yes, no, prefer, prefer not, other) rather than the questions themselves. I don't expect you'll get more understandable results from the next survey.

So we tried to assemble all the known permutations of viable options so they could be compared / contrasted to to each other as a whole, rather than just considering individual actions. We knew that resulted in a complex survey and did our best to mitigate that. > > I hope everyone in the group can do their best with the survey. We need it to feed discussion in tomorrow's meeting.
