I'd like to request some clarification of some of the questions:
1. By "all projects", are you including one-use only scripts? How about
university assessments (when it isn't Haskell-oriented, just have to
write a program to do some simulation or something) and thus it isn't
meant to be something used by other people or used after a certain
date, etc.?
3. I use cabal-install only in testing my own packages (as it's easier
to do "cabal foo" than "runhaskell Setup.hs foo"). I also use
cabal-install to test which packages I have installed have newer
versions available (cabal update && cabal upgrade --dry-run) so that
I can update the Gentoo packages for them. As such, which option
should I choose from the ones offered (as none of them match my
case)? Should the question be clarified and be made more explicit?
9. I wouldn't classify Hackage as a "tool", but even still, what happens
if we think Hackage is very important but still should be replaced?
(Playing devil's advocate here: I think it could do with some
upgrades but there's no need to completely throw out what's already
there).

Hello dear haskellers,
I am working on OASIS-DB, a tool similar to Hackage and would like to have more information on how Haskellers use Hackage. I have setup a small poll (10 questions only) with the help of John Goerzen and Don Stewart.
I will be very thankful that you answer this poll: http://polldaddy.com/s/2C49D15023CB88C6
I will share the data with the Haskell community, so that we will be able to make progress on Hackage and OASIS-DB.
Cheers Sylvain Le Gall
