Results from the Feature Prioritization Survey 2024

Thanks Martin! That will take a while to process, but a few quick questions off the top of my head:

  • will the raw vote tallies themselves be released? There's a pretty big range in the 1-208 vote span (those that received a special comment) which could significantly affect score interpretation. It would also be interesting to look at different visualizations for votes per user and votes per day.
  • since the "mean" is exactly 50, it's presumably normalized in some way. Can you describe the normalization?
  • is the score of wins/total done using the total votes for a given entry or the total votes overall? Hopefully the former so they're not biased by the number of times an entry was presented for voting.
  • the 1280 vote user (and perhaps the 640 & 641 vote users) seem like significant outliers. Did you do any further analysis to see if there's anything suspicious going on there? Or sensitivity analysis to see what results look like with that/those voter(s) excluded?
  • was the phrase "Loading and working large datasets could increase OR's user base in both numbers and variety to a great extent in my opinion." actually included in the question? Hopefully not!
