Survey: Open-Source Documentation for Newcomers

[nursenakrbs]

Hello Rust Community!

We are researchers from George Mason University in the United States, looking for open-source contributors to participate in our survey on open-source software (OSS) project documentation use when onboarding. If you are 18 or older and contributed to an OSS project in the last one year, you can help!

The objective of our research is to better understand what type of documentation in OSS projects is more helpful for project newcomers. The survey will take approximately 10 minutes, and upon successful completion of the survey, you will be able to participate in a draw for a chance to win one of four Amazon.com gift cards worth $50 via email.

We would be greatly appreciative if you would be willing to participate in this study and help us improve the effectiveness of the onboarding to software projects.

If this message would best be directed or reposted somewhere, please let us know, and we will be happy to modify/repost it.

Thank you for considering participating in our research study!

Only a small percentage of contributors read issues regularly enough to notice this issue. Our Zulip > general channel, would be a better fit for this kind of inquiry.
