F/LOSS contributors' motivation - questionaire


this is off topic i know but it is very important for my dissertation paper
mod note: Post has since been moved to its own thread.


Hello,

I am Onur Meci; Mail Address: onurmeci@gmail.com

I am a student in Management of Information systems at LSE ( London School
of Economics). I am writing my dissertation about F/LOSS contributors'
motivation. Therefore i have to make interviews with people who engage with
F/LOSS.
If you answer many question breifly, i will be very glad.

1- could you give some information about yoursefl, your role in community
and your community?
2-what was your first motivation when you attended firs F/LOSS project?
Right What? and why? ( how was it change? such as first learning after
change with enjoyment)
3-does being hired to F/LOSS work actually destroy internal motivation or
maintain internal motivation?
4-if someone or a firm or a sponsor pay money for your contribution, does it
motivate you more /or less ?
5-do you think motivation in F/LOSS same with motivation in sport and art ?
(artist and player)
6-what is the affect of economical gainings for internal motivation? such as
does money motivated more or does money increase the demand of contribution
?
7- does any different type of lincense impact the motivation ?

thank you in advance for everything

@ onurmeci: it is Linux Questions etiquette and more effective to start your own thread for a new topic.

Please post your thread in only one forum. Posting a single thread in the most relevant forum will make it easier for members to help you and will keep the discussion in one place. This thread is being closed because it is a duplicate.

That, plus it is, as you pointed out yourself, off-topic. "I know it's a 50K zone,
I'll go 80 anyway, because I feel it's important."

"Uh ... nuh".
