You can find the survey-form at http://foss.ta-altensteig.de/ I just filled in that form but I missed an option to tick which is my main motivation to support open source: Since 20 years or so I take advantage of many software products I don't have to pay for. Over the years they were called public domain, free, open source or whatever. Actively participating in an open source project is my way of paying for or compensating some of the benefits I received myself.
