AW: Google Summer of Code - Suvey

[Andreas Schilling]

Hi Alessandro,

First of all please excuse my late reply.  Last week I was on a conference where I had no opportunity to respond to your mail earlier. Moreover, I would like to thank you sincerely for your participation last year.

Please believe me that I will share my study results with you. The reason why I haven't published any of the survey results yet is that they might influence you or your colleagues. For example if there would have been an article in the newspaper yesterday about that many people hate their jobs, it would have a statistically effect on how people would report about their job satisfaction today. Even if you think that this side effect of publishing survey results would not affect GSoC participants' answers, please understand that I have to respect the scientific procedures for this multiyear study in order to derive proper results for my research.

I hope you understand my doing and I would really appreciate your participation in this years' survey and please excuse one more time my late response.

Best regards

Andreas

Hi Andreas,

even if it's a multi-year study, it would be nice to see the results of the surveys of last years.
As a SoK student, last year I filled at least three of your surveys, which honestly took me longer than 5 minutes each. Looking at last year results would motivate me to fill this year's ones (I am GSoC student this summer).

Thanks,
Alessandro
