Dear Spring Community You are invited to participate in a research project that I am conducting into open source component licensing. The research is part of my Doctorate of Business Administration degree at the University of Newcastle, Australia and is being supervised by Dr Len Whitehouse. It is hoped that the research will offer useful information about how component licensing is approached in practice, and the results will be made freely available to any person who is interested.
We are looking for software developers who are working on either commercial or open source projects. Participation in the research is entirely voluntary, and privacy has been carefully addressed to ensure that participants cannot be identified. The research has received an ethics clearance from the university. Participation will normally take less than 30 minutes. If you participate, you may optionally view a licensing compliance assessment report for your project. This may be of general interest or assist in planning licensing compliance strategies. If you are interested in learning more about the research, please visit http://research.acegitech.com. At that location you will find the full Research Information Sheet that explains the research and provides you with details on how to participate or ask further questions. Thank you taking the time to read this email, and I hope that you will consider participating.
