[Sorry for cross-posting] Hi everybody, I am part of the Spatial Information Systems Group in University College Dublin. We are conducting a survey on Open-Source technologies with particular focus on Geo-Spatial projects. Our goal is to collect first-hand knowledge about a number of Open- Source projects active on the Internet. With this work we hope to identify strong and weak points of each project in order to give some guidelines for future directions to the Open-Source community and potential developers in relation to Geo- Spatial research. Therefore we would like to ask you to take an anonymous questionnaire on Ruby on Rails. The questionnaire consists of a few simple questions about your experience with the software in terms of usability, stability, interoperability and so on. Estimated completion time: about 1 minute (per questionnaire) Link to the questionnaires: [http://bit.ly/geospatial-opensource-survey](http://bit.ly/geospatial-opensource-survey) Projects included in this survey: GeoServer, MapServer, PostGIS, MySQL, Hibernate, Hibernate Spatial, Ruby on Rails, Grails, Proj.4, GeoTools, Java Topology Suite, OpenLayers, JsExt, Prototype, MooTools Feel free to contact us at andrea.ballatore [at] ucd.ie if you have any questions, comments and recommendation about this survey. Thank you for your attention, Spatial Information Systems Group, School of Computer Science and Informatics, University College Dublin
