The current format does sometimes result in a sentence or two, but a lot of the answers are a paragraph or two. So I'm not sure the end result would be a much different amount of content; some people are going to give shorter replies no matter the form. The other good thing about the current format is that it makes the answers more directly comparable. > > That said, I do like the idea of a more free-form response as a way to see how candidates think. I suppose I can toss both at FESCo and let them make the choice. :-) Why not do both? Keep the questions to give candidates the opportunity to develop their thoughts along specific lines and leave them the option to add whatever they feel is worth discussing at the end of the questionnaire. _______________________________________________ devel mailing list -- devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe send an email to devel-leave@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Fedora Code of Conduct: https://docs.fedoraproject.org/en-US/project/code-of-conduct/ List Guidelines: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Mailing_list_guidelines List Archives: https://lists.fedoraproject.org/archives/list/devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
