Open source and diagramming survey

[chung at engr.orst.edu]

We had a study before with some Ubuntu developers by interviewing and  
there is a publication here.

Koji Yatani, Eunyoung Chung, Carlos Jensen, Khai N. Truong:  
Understanding how and why open source contributors use diagrams in the  
development of Ubuntu. CHI 2009: 995-1004

 From the survey, we would like to see whether diagrams can be used  
widely among oss contributors regardless of time and space constrains  
since diagrams are really useful material for communication. It would  
be really nice if we can suggest a diagramming software tool for oss  
contributors based on their needs :)
