Hi, It seems that we are starting again to discuss the next major release. I know that there are several improvements underway which are not necessarily user-visible, but excellent from an internal quality point of view and also greatly improve the portability on multiple databases. I think it's beneficial to also have some user-facing improvements which would make it easier to justify upgrading to a 1.3 release. I want to propose that we try and gather user feedback about what they want from an upgrade in a semi-structured way: 1. Gather information about some basic requirements from - twitter @mantisbt followers - mantisbt-dev subscribers - forum users 2. Form the basis of a proposal from the suggestions and create a survey similar to the Git user survey ( see https://git.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/GitSurvey2012 ) which should help us pick a couple of highly desirable features for 1.3.x . This should be marketed aggresively on more mailing lists, on the MantisBT org blog and submitted to syndication sites like dzone. And yes, I volunteer to drive this. Thoughts?

I like the idea of surveying our users. Looking at the git survey for 2011, they have about 35 questions that are mostly focused on demographics of the user base, how they use git, what they care about. There are only 3 questions about features: 17. Which of the following features would you like to see implemented in git? 18. Describe what features would you like to have in Git (free text) 26. In your opinion, which areas in Git need improvement? I think following a similar model makes sense. I would like to get a good sense of our what our community is like, what they care about, and directionally where they want us to focus. I suggest we start by a wiki page for the questions, use git's survey as a baseline, and then we can brainstorm was you have the first draft available.

Great minds... ;-) I think the survey should not only ask for what users want (wishlist) but also gather information about how Mantis is used today, including (but not limited to) - MantisBT version, upgraded vs new install, customized or not - PHP version - Web server and version - DB type and version - OS and version - shared hosting ? - size of mantis DB (# of bugs, notes, attachments, users) - which plugins are used (name, version, incl. reference if not in mantisbt-plugins github org) - Mantis user since (year, version) ? - No longer using Mantis ?

If the brainstorm about a questionnaire has already started... :-) Some stuff for a 'competitive analysis': - differentiate between end users and people making the decision what issue tracker will be used for a project/organisation - if the survey is advertised broadly, I'd also have a short path for people who didn't choose Mantis: why did they choose another tool - what other tools do people use and what do they like or hate (on its own, or in comparison with Mantis) For any question, it would be good to know how it informs a decision on where Mantis goes, or help in the promotion, or build a historical record to see trends when the survey is repeated. E.g. you could ask which PHP version people run, or whether they expect problems when the minimum requirement will become version 5.X. Or both. In general: I fill out quite a few user surveys. I think it's a simple way to contribute to a tool I value. It works as an engagement tool too. Happy to help with inputs or feedback, Robert. --Rolf.

I started looking for a survey tool . Apparently most are limited in their free plan, usually around 10 questions and 100 answers. I found that http://kwiksurveys.com/ has a free plan which is unlimited and consider going with them. Any opinions on this? |

Seems to be limited as well: For a start we are giving you 25 responses for free - and every month we up your account balance by another 25 responses if you have less than 25 responses left! We do not lock you into long-term payments. If you don't need to run any surveys in a month, then it does not cost you a dime! ( https://www.limeservice.com/en/ ) Yes, we can self-host if needed but I'd rather avoid the hassle.

Now that 1.2.15 is out I think it's a good moment for everyone who didn't have the chance to review the current state of the survey questions at [1] and comment what should change, what should be removed etc. This survey should be used as the chance to prioritise our work for the next features. Another thing which I've been considering is running two separate surveys - one for individuals - one for organisations The benefit would be that organisations would point out issues like long-term maintainability, aggregate feedback from their internal users, lack of customisability for certain scenarios etc. WDYT?

I'd much rather go for a conditional setup, where irrelevant questions are skipped, depending on answers to questions. This should be quite easy to achieve with limesurvey tool. Rather than individuals vs orgs, we should probably consider the following cases/profiles to drive specific questions as appropriate - users (should answer all generic questions) - admin (i.e. hosting and/or administering a MantisBT instance) - developer (i.e. has configured Mantis or written plugins before, privately or not) > The benefit would be that organisations would point out issues like > long-term maintainability, aggregate feedback from their internal > users, lack of customisability for certain scenarios etc. WDYT? Sounds like most if not all of this would fall under the "admin" profile In terms of survey contents, I think we should ask what are the 2-3 key features that would be an incentive for them to upgrade. I see this as a multi-selection list (check-boxes) with a few options identified from our tracker / own ideas* for users to select from (e.g. groups management, better UI, ...) as well as a a couple of free-text fields or three. |

BTW, can someone with server access please set up limesurvey on our server? -- http://robert.muntea.nu/ |

Can we somehow have a brainstorm to see what is an option for the next release. Not necessarily feasible right now :-) We can do this by email or some other way if anyone has a better idea? -- http://robert.muntea.nu/ |

I've added some feature candidates at http://www.mantisbt.org/wiki/doku.php/mantisbt:feature_candidates I've done this by using a) common sense b) active bugs in the bugtracker ( only skimmed those whose is < 11000 ) I think it'd be good if someone took a second pass at the bugtracker ( we have too many open bugs! ) and also collected some good enhancement requests from IRC/forums, as I'm not really active there.

I've completed my pass through the bug tracker and also included some features I think are important [1]. Can we settle on gathering feature requirements and questions for the survey until this Sunday? I'd like to start working on the actual survey flow ( regardless of limesurvey being available or not ) on Monday.

Thanks for putting them on the wiki ; IIRC your comments were mostly on not splitting surveys between orgs and users, right? I'll structure the survey accordingly. > >> regardless of limesurvey being available or not > > That's done :) Thanks :-) Robert > > > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Try New Relic Now & We'll Send You this Cool Shirt > New Relic is the only SaaS-based application performance monitoring service > that delivers powerful full stack analytics.
