[IxDA Discuss] A resarch survey on free/open source software (F/OSS) usability

[Görkem Çetin]

Dear usability experts and F/OSS developers,

If you are working in an open source project, we are inviting you to 
participate in a doctorate study that investigates how developers and 
HCI experts work in a distributed manner. You will be asked to answer 
a set of questions regarding F/OSS projects you take part in. Your 
participation in this survey will provide information that could 
be used to improve how HCI experts and developers interact in a 
F/OSS project.

Online survey takes only 15 minutes to complete and will allow us to
have an understanding of interaction patterns among project participants.
