These answer the questions independently, i.e. there's no correlation between the results of these polls. That's the most interesting aspect of this questionnaire.

Thank you fellow belg4mit.

I will need some time to digest all this information.

Maybe it will be quite useful, indeed. But there is a weird problem that I can't figure out how to solve:

You should maybe add another question: 'Why do you use PerlMonks?' I think this would be by far the most interesting.

Dear Fellows

Update: I'm sorry. I know I'm very late to post this, but this was as faster as I can count the results down. Please forgive me for my lack of time.

I've collected the data gentle posted in answer to the Who am I? Who are you? Who are us? post and built a big tab-separated table with it.

Unfortunatelly, I'm lacking the necessary time to analise the data and come with something more elaborated to answer the questions "Who Am I?", "Who Are You?" and "Who Are Us?", that motivated this posting.

For this reason, I'm asking for a volunteer to summarize the data and analise it, and post the results here. Maybe a generous Perl Monk read this posting and would help finish this effort.

Follow the data, also available at my scratchpad:
