[development] Drupal administration survey draft based on 10 interviews

[Derek Wright]

1) great work putting this together, kieran!

2) i think gary and dries's concerns about the phrasing of the  
original draft of the survey are right-on, overall.

3) kieran, sounds like you agree with many of them -- how about an  
updated draft of the survey for futher reviews/edits so we don't  
duplicate suggestions that have already been incorporated?

4) a minor nit-pick in one of your replies...

as the current maintainer of signup.module, i must protest. ;)   
signup does *not* require or depend on event.module.  you can "signup- 
enable" any node you want.  certain features of signup conditionally  
happen if the thing you're signing up for *is* an event, but that's  
optional.
