You guys need to realize that in any given day we, as developers, destroy and recreate wineprefixes several times. Having a popup for every wineprefix creation will be extremely annoying. If this can't be done behind the scenes, say as a winecfg option, then I wouldn't expect to get much support for this.

I don't see why it would present any technical problem to have a way to disable this.. wineprefixcreate --quiet?
Because then the policy is opt-out instead of opt-in. Also, wineprefixcreate is run automatically now anytime a wineprefix is created; how will you handle the quiet option for those cases? I don't have a problem with someone figuring out a way to get usage statistics and implementing it as long as it doesn't change our work flow.

How about we add it in the Winecfg about box, below the registration information, to enable the survey?
Most people won't be bothered, but those curious people that search in there would find it. Send a note along to wine-users/add it in the announcements, so people can be aware of it.
