Need to add a link to the all en locales' "what's new page".  Link should only appear 10% of the time. The script should be in whatsnew.js

Link text: Help us make Firefox even better! Take a few moments to take a quick survey and share your thoughts with us.

"Take a few moments to take a quick survey and share your thoughts with us." should link to: http://mozillacorporat.quarterlysurveyen.sgizmo.com  

I would prefer, however, to embed the survey on one of our web pages. 



Here's what you need to embed it -- <script src="http://app.sgizmo.com/s/survey_js2.php?id=WZ4B9TO52T5SPOLZ292V8ONUM0NNH4-81985" type="text/javascript" ></script> <noscript><a href="http://www.surveygizmo.com/s/81985/wz4b9">Please take my survey</a></noscript> 

If that is not possible, then we'll just link it.
Is this different than bug 465842?
Yes, in that each bug is for a different locale. This one is for en locales. I have nine others...so I figured...one bug per locale?
survey link is: http://qsurvey.mozilla.com/quarterlysurveyen

<script src="http://app.sgizmo.com/s/survey_js2.php?id=WZ4B9TO52T5SPOLZ292V8ONUM0NNH4-81985" type="text/javascript" ></script> <noscript><a href="http://www.surveygizmo.com/s/81985/wz4b9">Please take my survey</a></noscript>
I'm not clear what the "survey link" is in comment #3.  It sounds like it's supposed to be in place of "http://mozillacorporat.quarterlysurveyen.sgizmo.com" from comment #1 but you link to a completely different place in the <noscript> text.  Are they supposed to be two different URLs?

What is the timeline for these surveys?

I'm also CCing IT as we've brought down mozilla.com in the past including remote javascript.  IT will need to sign off that sgizmo.com can support the traffic.
Correct: Comment #3 is the right link.  

<script src="http://app.sgizmo.com/s/survey_js2.php?id=WZ4B9TO52T5SPOLZ292V8ONUM0NNH4-81985" type="text/javascript" ></script> <noscript><a href="http://www.surveygizmo.com/s/81985/wz4b9">Please take my survey</a></noscript>  is the right script--it sends me to the correct survey.  

These surveys will be online for at least 24hrs, but right now im planning on 72 hrs in order to get at 1000 responses per locale.

We also need to know when they need to be online
Well, the release page doesnt say for sure, but im assuming mid december...
Which release page? https://wiki.mozilla.org/Releases says December 16. Is there another one you're looking at so I can fix it?
OS: Mac OS X → All
Hardware: PC → All
Has anyone asked sgizmo.com if they can handle our traffic?
I will ask and post their answer asap.
Looks like they'd have to support around 8 - 12 million loads per day.
Just called and they said they can handle it.
I'm a little worried.  I tested the js and it took around .7 seconds to load.  On top of that I was only able to get about 2 req/s from them and we need closer to 100 req/s.  My suggestion would be to just link to it.

Also, it is huge and the css seems screwed up. http://people.mozilla.com/~oremj/survey.html
Thanks oremj.  Linking it is.
Awesome. Thanks for looking into this!
Since Samuel can't work on this before next week I did a preliminary implementation in r20391

The text asked in comment#0 does not correspond to the layout of text boxes we have on the site which is Title + Description + Link

I put the following text instea
Since Samuel can't work on this before next week I did a preliminary implementation in r20391 (and r20392 for a link change)

The text asked in comment#0 does not correspond to the layout of text boxes we have on the site which is Title + Description + Link

I put the following text instead:

Title: Help us make Firefox even better!
Description: Take a few moments to take a quick survey and share your thoughts with us. 
Link: Firefox User Survey


The text link is already translated in our survey application l10n files.

The Block of text replaces the blurb about Sumo 10% of times.

Note that if you compare trunk and stage, the 3 boxes are not aligned, this is a separate CSS regression issue.

Is there a bug filed for this?

No, feel free to file one, I haven't had time yet to make a diff between our css on trunk and production to see what changed.

Bug 467692.

The other thing I noticed is that we currently capitalize the first letter of every word in titles for the other sections (except "lesser" words... there's a term for this I can't remember). We're not doing that with the new section. I probably should've noticed that above though.

i.e., should we change "Help us make Firefox even better!" to "Help Us Make Firefox Even Better!"?
Oh, and the link currently goes to Sumo, but I bet that's expected.

I already fixed that, ctrl+R

Fixed in r20394 for consistency

Has anyone tested or even implemented the appearing-10%-of-the-time randomization mentioned in comment 0?

Reloading https://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0.5/whatsnew/ a bunch of times doesn't yield the survey, for me.
stephen, this is the right url but not the right page, it is displaying the 3.0.5 beta page for all locales now even on the staging server probably because somebody put an apache redirect :(

Makes it *really* hard to test, then; who's going to take point on getting it fixed, or are we sure enough that it'll "just work" when we ship?
If y'all need webdev help let me know what needs to happen

> If y'all need webdev help let me know what needs to happen

Can we get check the .htaccess--if that's the same as the apache redirect in comment 27--and make changes to it such that I can test the randomization?

I should be able to reload https://www-trunk.stage.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.0.5/whatsnew/ and see the survey and its linking text (comment 0).
There was a redirect on releasenotes and whatsnew for 3.0.5 which ss added on Dec 10th.  r20814 removes it.  You should be able to test now.
Thanks, clouserw -- <3.

It looks good to me.
