Dear all,
We are Chen, Kian Siong and Goh, Yong Kwang from the National
University of Singapore (NUS), School of Computing performing academic
research for our honours year thesis. Our current research covers open
source projects, its communities, developers and users.
In our study, we hope to be able to solicit the objective opinions of
MySQL users and developers to provide support for proposed theories in
our study through a survey.
Completing the questionnaire is estimated to take up 20 minutes of
your time.
We wished to reassure you that all data and information collected from
you for our survey will be kept strictly confidential with all
available measures taken to protect and safeguard them.
We believe that the shared value of altruism in the open source
community will encourage you to take part in our study.
If you are interested and willing to help us, the electronic version
of the questionnaire survey is downloadable at any of the URLs
mentioned below.
