Hi Everyone Please see below for a message from some researchers from the University of Cincinnati who are running a survey on participation in Open Source. The survey is open to all Apache contributors and committers and the researchers have said they make a donation to the ASF for completed responses up to a maximum of $1000.
Please feel free to circulate this message within your projects. Thanks Sharan ========================================== October 16, 2018 Dear Apache Software Foundation Contributors and Committers, We are researchers at the University of Cincinnati. We want to understand how a firm's participation in open source software (OSS) development affects you and your job. Since you are significant contributors to the OSS community, we invite you to participate in our study by completing an online survey. The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. In appreciation of your time, $5 will be donated to Apache for each completed survey response up to a total of $1,000. In addition, each survey participant will be entered into a prize drawing. Two people will be randomly selected—each person will receive a $250 Visa gift card. Your individual responses will be kept confidential and anonymous. Your participation is voluntary. You may start and then change your mind and exit the survey at any time. You can complete the survey any time before November 10th. We will send one reminder on October 21st and one on November 8th. Your inputs are extremely valuable to improving our understanding of how OSS development impacts developers’ career experiences.
