Hi @smm thank you for integrating our feedback.

I might be the least qualified to answer – I’m sure @uranusjr and others have better ideas.

But for me the use of the word “development” is a little confusing in the questions.

I might word it like so:

> Do you create distribution packages for applications, for example, to upload to PyPI or to share internally? (There are separate questions on packages for libaries below)

and then similarly …

> Do you create distribution packages for libraries? (yes/no)

I suggest the term “distribution packages” since that’s what’s used for clarity on [packaging.python.org](https://packaging.python.org/glossary/#term-Distribution-Package). I think that’s what the survey is trying to get at here. If I’m misunderstanding then feel free to disregard.
