<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am the webmaster of the Linux Society and User
Group based at the University of Salford. I am also doing a PhD investigating
the community aspects of Free and Open Source Software use and development. To
collect information on this, I have prepared a short questionnaire, which I am
distributing to all UK Linux User Groups. I would very much appreciate it if you
could forward this link to the members of your User Group, and if you can spare
the time, complete the questionnaire yourself. Additionally if you know any
other users or developers of Free and Open Source Software who may be interested
in participating in the survey, then please pass the link on to them. The
questionnaire is available at <A
