Any survey or questionnaire starts always by explaining the interviewed the conditions and the privacy rules. We have to make them for each survey. I have some documentation regarding this, gonna share it once I translate it. I will start deploying some documentation on http://nmarques.fedorapeople.org/ after I translate it. By the way, a suggestion, can we place a small request to our artists for a Fedora Marketing Group logo? Do we need permission from sponsors or anyone else on the organization? Do we have templates available for presentations and documents?
