pkgsrc survey

["Jeremy C. Reed" <reed%reedmedia.net@localhost>]

Please consider installing pkgsrc/pkgtools/pkgsurvey and running it.

It will email your hostname, your operating system processor and version, and 
list of your installed packages to an email alias setup by a member of the 
pkgsrc Project Management Committee.

I have been told that email addresses and individual machine release levels 
will not be divulged to anyone and that only information relating to packages 
and pkgsrc will be used and will only present that to people.

Consider only submitting a survey once per month; maybe a monthly job could be 
useful to spot trends. (Also the pkgsrc-pmc member has advised some people to 
use some form of passive IDS like tripwire or aide, depending on the results. 
He'll continue to do this.)

p.s. I hope to find out what packages are widely used for preparing a DVD. If 
you are interested in a DVD with packages, please let me know. Also, I will use 
this information to help better use my time for porting pkgsrc packages to 
other (non-NetBSD) pkgsrc platforms.
