If you're enthusiastic about making a survey, there's no reason for you
to withdraw. For that matter, there's no reason why Gary at EDB can't
contribute to the better survey along with everyone else.
Amusing note: despite *us* never having a "user survey", the
OpenOffice.org user survey which they ran for years and collected over
200,000 responses was built by folks from the PostgreSQL project (me,
Justin, Roberto).
