Bummer. Can we ensure that data about our current GSoC participants gets put in SVN somewhere for our own historical reference? ...snip... >>> Should we continue participating in GSoC on a foundation level?

Dunno - that's why we have people who write standards for surveys (a couple of Members have volunteered in the past to help write questions like this in a standardized way). https://www.surveygizmo.com/survey-blog/likert-scale-what-is-it-how-to-analyze-it-and-when-to-use-it/ https://www.surveymonkey.com/blog/2014/09/19/2-tips-for-writing-agree-disagree-survey-questions/ For any 'degree' questions, we need to use a standard agree or satisfied scale that's used in standard surveys. That likely means the question needs to be re-phrased so it fits that kind of scale. - Shane --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@community.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@community.apache.org
