Priorities

  • For Your Organization, what is the priority of ongoing work in WGs and IGs?
    • This question was asked in the 2009 survey. The list of WGs and IGs to include in the new survey is in the IPP page.
    • As was done in the 2009 survey, the new survey should allow a maximum number of points that can be distributed among the various groups.
  • For The Betterment of the Web, what is the priority of ongoing work in WGs and IGs?
    • Use the same mechanics as the above question but taking a broader `WWW` perspective rather than a strict Member-centric view.
  • Does your organization consider its membership to be primarily dedicated to your organization's specific priorities, or to the betterment of the Web (i.e., "giving back")?
    • A 1-to-5 style of answer selection might make sense here **
  • What are the most important things the Consortium should/must do (within the next 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, ...) to move The Web forward?
  • What are the most important things the Consortium should/must do (within the next 6 months, 1 year, 2 years, ...) to move The Consortium itself forward?
  • What are the Consortium's major Issues and what should be done to address them?
  • What should be the Technical Architecture Group's top priorities?
  • What is the priority of the following recently started or proposed activities: Social Business, Web Payments, Web of Things? Are these activities of more, less or of equal priority to ongoing work?

Member Benefits

  • What are the most important Member benefits?
  • What Member benefits should be extended to participants in the proposed Webizen program?

Advisory Committee

  • Given participation by Advisory Committee representatives in meetings, mail list discussions, questionnaires, etc. is relatively low, what should the Consortium do to get better AC participation?
  • What are the biggest pain points for AC reps and what should the Staff do to address them?
  • How important is the annual standalone f2f meeting for you? Would you support changing it to one or more virtual distributed meetings (f.ex. a few 2-3 hour virtual (remote) sessions that favor different timezones)?

Considerations for the Survey Itself

  • Make the survey available in non-English languages, provided there is a commitment to do the translations.
  • After the survey is started, what can be done to get a better response rate than the 67 Members that replied to the 2009 survey (67/400 = 17%)?
  • At the end of the survey, include an open field field such as "If you have any other feedback for the Staff, enter it here:".
