Hi

Personally at my work place everyone including the secretary is exposed to git "business document repository", ssh "remote access", trac, wiki "procedure documentation and cross training, so people can leave without knowledge lose".

Skills, 
software versioning such as
svn, git

project tools, such as
trac, wiki, rt

admin skills, such as
installing software, 
sharing ssh keys
reading logs
setting up users

bash, perl, python scripting

This summer, I will be surveying small and medium sized businesses
about their hiring needs/plans, skill requirements, workplaces, etc.
The second page of five in the survey has a question about current or
potential use of open source software and systems. I'd like some
feedback on this question, so I have included it below for you to
review.

Open Source Software Skills:

(Multiple select options below)
Mozilla Firefox
OpenOffice.org (cross-platform office suite)
Mozilla Thunderbird (e-mail/calendar)
GNU Image Manipulation Program (GIMP)
Other open-source software on Windows
Other open-source software on Mac
<Linux distributions>
CentOS
Debian
Fedora
Mandriva
Mepis
Red Hat Enterprise Linux
SUSE
Ubuntu (including Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc.)
Other Linux distribution
<Content Management Systems>
Drupal
Joomla!
Plone
<>
No idea

"Is your organization presently using any free/open source software,
or planning/considering implementing open source software during the
next 12 months? If so, please indicate which from the options above."

The construction site for the survey is at http://hireknowledge.ca
Note that I will be adding information resources for the confused, and
I will be preparing respondents with a list of key questions before
they actually reach the survey form itself.

Any thoughts?

Ralph
