Subject: Programmers motivation research

Dear Linux kernel community, 

We are researching the motivation factors of Open Source software 
programmers and would like to ask your cooperation in our large-scale 
research. The research is performed for the Amsterdam Business School of 
the University of Amsterdam. Your participation would consist of 
completing an online survey to which we have linked below. Your 
participation is completely anonymous and the research publication will 
be freely available, including the results of the survey.

The goal of the research is to better understand the motivations 
software programmers have for joining and contributing to an Open Source 
project. The insights gained from this research would help the 
development of theory for Information Management and could help 
practitioners better understand Open Source projects. Next to this, the 
publication of this research will increase the exposure of the 
development of Open Source software within the academic environment. 
Please follow the link to the online survey.

Our test audience has shown that completing the survey will take about 
15 minutes. Your time is highly appreciated by us.

Dr. Thomas Adelaar
