Invitation to participate in a survey about Ansible

Dear Ansible contributor,

We are doing research on understanding how developers manage a special kind of Technical Debt in Python.

We kindly ask 15-20 minutes of your time to fill out our survey. To help you decide whether to fill it in, we clarify two points.

“Why should I answer this survey?”

Your participation is essential for us to correctly understand how developers manage Technical Debt.

“What is in it for me?”

Your valuable contributions to Ansible are part of the information we analyzed for this study. Thus, if you help us further by answering this survey, there are two immediate benefits:

  • you help to improve the efficiency of maintaining the quality of Ansible.
  • the results will be used to propose recommendations to manage technical debt and create tool support.
    Here is the link to the survey.

Thank you for your time and attention.

Kind regards,
Jie Tan, Daniel Feitosa and Paris Avgeriou

Hi, having answered your survey I'd like to ask if you could
also post a link to the final paper/results/… of your research
to this list once it is finished.

I suppose [this][1] is the project you are working on.

Thanks and good luck
-Andi
