So here is the prototype: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/XGXPHXZ

You can answer it now but I will reset the collecting and distribute it
publicly if we agree on its current form.

It will be published on the 3 FFmpeg mailing-lists and IRC channels.
People responsible for the twitter account, G+ and others will be free to
share it there then as well.

You have 24 hours to make comments.

Thanks for surveymonkey.com and other suggestions.

Regards,
