A masters student from the University of Oslo (yours truly) is currently doing a research project on firm-sponsored open-source communities. openSUSE is the main case of study, and the research will provide some knowledge about how the community is working and its collaboration and affiliation with Novell.
As part of this study, a contributor survey has been launched. If you are an active contributor to the openSUSE project (involved in packaging, support, discussions, documentation, translation etc), please take 2 minutes to fill out this survey by clicking the link.
The results from the survey will be published on opensuse.org within a month, and the full thesis will be ready by June 2008.

YaST IRC Channel and Workshop Results
(10 votes, average: 4.8 out of 5) Loading ...The YaST team had last week a workshop and the participants are now updating the openSUSE wiki with their slides and comments.
Lukas announced that the YaST team is opening up their development further:
During the YaST workshop last week, the developers have decided to use the current #yast channel on irc.freenode.net as our official one. In a few days, you will be able to find most of internal YaST developers there - and we hope, more and more external as well 
So how to talk with YaST developers online? Simply click on the link above, or:
- Install some IRC client and run it…
- Use these settings:
- /server irc.freenode.net
- /join #yast
We still don’t have any “YaST IRC Client” 
Not yet!
Besides the #yast channel, there are more that are used by the openSUSE project, for details check the openSUSE wiki.
Have a nice day && a lot of fun!
Lukas and Andreas
