Can I bother you to contribute a few more minutes of your time to fill out the 2015 contributor survey? It helps everyone establish some baselines around the contributor experience so that we can gauge how things change over time.
This is being posted to all the Make teams, so if you subscribe to a bunch of p2s and keep seeing this post, know that you only need to fill the survey in once, not once per team.
The survey is anonymous (so you can be extra honest), all questions are optional (so you can skip any that you don’t want to answer), and we’ll post some aggregate results around the end of January. It took testers 5-10 minutes to complete on average (depends how much you have to say), so I bet you could crank it out right after you read this post.
There are two sections of the survey:
- The first has questions about team involvement, recognition, and event involvement, and is pretty much what you’d expect from an annual survey (which teams did you contribute to, how happy are you as a contributor, etc).
- The second section is about demographics so we can take a stab at assessing how diverse our contributor base is. All questions are optional, but the more information we have the better we can figure out what we need to improve. If there’s some information you’d rather not identify, that’s okay, but please do not provide false information or use the form to make jokes — just skip those questions.
The survey will be open until January 15, 2016. Whether you have 5 minutes now, or 10 over lunch (or whenever), please take the 2015 contributor survey. Thanks, and thanks again for making 2015 awesome!
