Hello,

If your inbox is as cluttered as mine, the link to the survey we sent a  
couple of weeks ago may have slipped your mind.

If you're willing to take approximately 20 minutes and fill out a survey to  
help us continue improving ODK, we would greatly appreciate it.

> **[Retirement of Catalyst WebQ and GradeBook](https://itconnect.uw.edu/tools-services-support/software-computers/catalyst-web-tools/retirement/)**
>
>  You can download survey content and responses, and gradebook files, from the Catalyst Archive. Learn more about the Catalyst Archive.

We would love to hear about how people are using the tools, which could  
inform future development of ODK.

Thank you!

Camille, Sam, Waylon & Richard
