I'd like to request some clarification of some of the questions:

You might want to add a "don't know" or similar option, so that people don't have to fill in questions arbitrarily in the case they feel none of the answers match.

You can just skip the question. No question are mandatory.

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 generally try to use distribution packages first, and (manually) download from hackage in case my distribution doesn't supply what I need. I'm not quite sure what to answer here.

I think the answer: "I use cabal-install when my Linux/Mac/Windows distribution doesn't provide the package" should be ok. Thank you for answering the survey. Regards, Sylvain Le Gall
