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 -- ubuntu-ca mailing list ubuntu-ca@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-ca </pre></blockquote></td></tr></table>
