Re: Why doesn't my mail appear on the pgsql-announce list?

Hello, Stephen,

I didn't notice this page. Thanks.
(But my mail seems to fall under " Major new advocacy effort"...)

I'm OK as I could post to pgsql-advocacy successfully.

Yes, actually, I wanted to post the survey on postgresql.org, but I didn't know how. In addition, it seemed that postgresql.org survey can contain only a single question. My survey requires three questions. What's more, the survey form needs to allow respondents to add new choices to the multiple-choice question, and the second question needs to change based on the first one. Those requirements made me choose Google Form and write some Google App Script.
