Hi

I'm Mohsen, a PhD student working with Prof. Ralph Johnson at the University of 
Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign (UIUC). Ralph is a co-author of the seminal book on design patterns 
(GoF) and his research 
group has a history of important contributions to IDE's.

Our team [1] is studying how developers interact with the Eclipse IDE for 
evolving and maintaining their 
code. We are extending this invitation to expert open source developers and 
would greatly appreciate and 
value your participation and help in our research study.

To participate you should be at least 18 years old and use Eclipse Helios for 
Java development. As a 
participant, we ask that you complete a short survey and install our Eclipse 
plug-in called CodingSpectator 
[2].

CodingSpectator monitors programming interactions non-intrusively in the 
background and periodically 
uploads it to a secure server at UIUC. To get a representative perspective of 
how you interact with Eclipse, 
we would appreciate if you could install CodingSpectator for two months. Rest 
assured that we are taking 
the utmost measures to protect your privacy and confidentiality.

If you are interested, you may sign up at 
<http://codingspectator.cs.illinois.edu/ConsentForm>, which 
contains our consent form with all the details and procedures of our research 
study.

Your participation will help us greatly as we try to better understand how 
developers interact with their 
IDE's so we can propose improvements which fit better with their mindsets.

Thanks in advance for your time! Please do not hesitate to contact me 
(mvaki...@illinois.edu) if you have 
any questions or comments. More information can also be found at our FAQ [3]. 
Feel free to forward this 
invitation to anyone who might be interested in participating in this study.
