dns: add surveys.nixos.org

[djacu]

In preparation for the new surveys page.

Is there any implication for the limesurvey instance in here that I am missing?

[djacu]

I completely forgot we host lime survey at survey.nixos.org. Putting the survey results at surveys.nixos.org would be confusing. Any ideas for a better subdomain?

[mweinelt]

I suppose a category on Discourse is not what you are looking for?

I wonder if we could use the survey.n.o domain for both limesurvey and whatever results website you're setting up. To create space for that, I think we could "move" limesurvey into a subpath (/survey? /lime?, IDK). That would make things more discoverable, IMO. Here's the relevant limesurvey docs: https://www.limesurvey.org/manual/Optional_settings#URL_settings, seems like you need to read up on the Yii framework to figure out how to do it.

This year I used echarts and astro to create an webpage for the survey results. I am hoping that more teams can use the same pipeline in the future to process their survey results and post them on the shared survey site.

Hey @mweinelt @jfly
I dug into the limesurvey docs and it looks like implementing it would get messy.

@thilobillerbeck did some work to pull the surveys repo into the nixos-homepage repo and deploy it directly to nixos.org/surveys.

Appreciate all the ideas and help. I don't think there is any reason to keep this PR open so I'll close it for now.
