Hi flipchan
Thanks, that's a good point - as a PhD researcher my completed thesis gets uploaded through our university library to https://www.era.lib.ed.ac.uk/ for free public access when I submit, so it should be openly accessible there. I'm also hoping to circulate my main findings to the community in a more accessible format (with less social sciences jargon) when the research is done. While I can't opensource my data (as the interviews are anonymous), I'm very happy to make my thesis freely and openly available in a way which ensures the anonymity of the respondents. Very best, Ben ________________________________ From: tor-talk <tor-talk-boun...@lists.torproject.org> on behalf of flipchan <flipc...@riseup.net> Sent: 25 September 2017 18:58:26 To: tor-talk@lists.torproject.org Subject: Re: [tor-talk] Tor Research presentation at the CCC Well would be cool if u opensourced all ur findings and research Take care ~flipchan On September 25, 2017 6:52:35 PM GMT+02:00, COLLIER Ben <s1263...@sms.ed.ac.uk> wrote: >Hello all, > > >I hope that this finds all of you well - as some of you may know, I'm a >researcher at the University of Edinburgh and I've been conducting some >sociological research with members of the Tor community over the last >nine months or so.
