Re: GSoC Final-Survey

[Andreas Schilling <andreas schilling uni-bamberg de>]

Dear GSoC-Students

Please remember that this survey will terminate on August 31st. I know 
that all of you have stuff to do but I would greatly appreciate if you 
could take 10 minutes of your time (I promise it won’t take longer) and 
answer the questions in my survey. Your answers would help me 
substantially with my research.

Thank you very much in advance

Andreas
