In the “dull but important” category: my friend Allison Randal is doing a survey on people’s attitudes to contribution policies (committer’s agreements, copyright assignment, DCO etc.) in free/libre/open source software projects. I’m rather interested in what she comes up with. So if you have a few minutes (it should take less than 5 – I just did it) to fill in her survey about what you think about such things, she and I would be most grateful:

http://survey.lohutok.net is the link. You want the “FLOSS Developer Contribution Policy Survey” – I’ve done the other one on Mozilla’s behalf.

Incidentally, this survey is notable as I believe it’s the first online multiple-choice survey I’ve ever taken where I didn’t think “my answer doesn’t fit into your narrow categories” about at least one of the questions. So it’s definitely well-designed.
