F/OSS Questionnaire

[Edward Lilley]

Hello list members.
I am doing a school (HRSFC) project on free/open source software, and as
'primary' research I'm getting a handful of random techy people to fill
in the following questionnaire -- I would be everlastingly grateful if a
few people could spare 90 seconds or so fillling it in and emailing the
answers back to me (off-list, so less spam &c.)
