I know there's no official git blog, I've tried to change that, but so far that hasn't happened. IMHO for now the most popular git blog(s) should announce the survey, I'll announce it at gitlog.wordpress.com but it is far from being popular. I understand your position for not making your personal blog the official one; I wouldn't do that on my personal blog either (felipec.wordpress.com) that's why I created a separate blog for that, where you, or anyone else, can do official git posts instead of on their personal blog.
