Hi,

Note! This message is NOT directly about MeeGo platform or MeeGo app
development.

Dawn, Dave, Henri, Randall and others have done a great job at
creating tools to gather information about and for the community[1].
Current tools are excellent for various purposes such as activity
monitoring.

Yet the tools for more profound and deeper understanding of the
community are still hidden. To fill this tool gap, two researchers
from the University of Tampere [2] have created a small survey for the
community members. The survey is intended for people who are actively
contributing to the MeeGo Community (code, application developers,
documentation, community facilitation, other participation - technical
and non-technical).

The survey takes only a few minutes of your time, but the information
collected from it will possibly benefit the community for years.[/B]
The survey will be repeated annually and all information will be
treated anonymously. Results of the survey will be available to the
community in the MeeGo Conference 2011. The raw data (anonymized) will
be made available for others (inside this community) to use.

Did you get express permission from the MeeGo community council (Dawn, Quim, etc?) to post this to this list?

No I did not.

Since you clearly state your survey is "Academic", I assume it directly benefits you as a person, providing you with research data.

No, it does not benefit me as person unless -possible- articles in scientific journals are included. This survey will not be part of my thesis.

As such, this invitation is a direct violation of list policies, and as such not allowed use of this or any MeeGo mailinglist unless expressly approved.


I apologize the community. I will be more careful in the future. Didn't occur to me that conducting a academic survey on open source community would be such a crime. But duly noted.

Jarkko
