New Contributor Experience in Python and other FOSS Communities - A Survey
Hi all, Along with a number of other free and open communities, Python is being included in a survey of new contributors since January 2010. The survey is being done by Kevin Carillo, a PhD student at Victoria University of Wellington who is studying various approaches that projects use to gain and work with new contributors. If you have written patches, reviewed issues, or done anything to contribute to the development of Python and you started this after January 2010, I hope you can spare around 20 minutes to complete this survey: https://limesurvey.sim.vuw.ac.nz/index.php?sid=65151&lang=en There's a longer blog post up at http://blog.python.org/2012/11/new-contributor-experience-in-python.html if you would like a bit more information. On behalf of Kevin Carillo, I thank you for your time and consideration of this survey. Brian Curtin

Just a quick reminder - Kevin could really use the help if any of you recent newcomers can spare the time. I took the survey myself since I became a committer right after the survey range begins, and I think it took me 15 minutes.
