This is for my academic coursework and dissertation. It will be great to have your support and participation in this survey. This survey has two separate questionnaires, focusing on the following areas: 1) OSS development (Developers or those who contribute in coding or documentation), and 2) IT/IS costs (CIOs or IT Managers). You are free to go for the questionnaire that is appropriate for you. Below are the links: 1) Brief introduction page: http://web.singnet.com.sg/~mikecck/opensource/Introduction1.htm 2) Questionnaire 1(Open Source Development): http://web.singnet.com.sg/~mikecck/opensource/WebFormA1.htm 3) Questionnaire 2(Open Source and IT/IS Cost): http://web.singnet.com.sg/~mikecck/opensource/WebFormB1.htm Thank you for your time.
