An InnerSource survey helps get information about the state of InnerSource in an organization. It produces numbers that can be used when talking to management about how to establish InnerSource in an organization. If a survey with the same or similar questions is executed regularly (e.g, once per year or every second year), it helps identifying trends, evaluating progress that an InnerSource initiative (hopefully) made, and can act as basis to decide about the next steps towards establishing InnerSource.

Hi @misappi! Thank you for this interest! Is this still something that you are planning on working on?

Hi @rrrutledge, yes definitely. But I do not have time right now.

@dellagustin-sap intends to contribute as a pattern.

FYI: I'll be unavailable from Dec 24 2023 to Jan 22 2024.

Pinging @dellagustin and @misappi to follow-up on this issue and add a status report. Thanks

Still planning to contribute with a Pattern sometime in the future. I'm open to show the details for anyone interested, under Chatham House Rule, for anyone interested (e.g., ISPO WG show and tell).

I have worked on this topic internally, we have created "neutral" copies of our survey planning documents (questionnaire structure). It is currently in internal review. Once it is approved I'll share the files with the community, before we start working on the pattern.

Here are the files with the survey structure and questions used by SAP, with some minor modifications to remove SAP specific information: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1kAkKT9YT5iZlPZn3dYHFJdThvlV8lGAM
