Hello,

Researchers at Oregon State University are striving to conduct
research to learn more about the free/open source software community
landscape as it relates to older adults. We’re looking for older
adults who are older than 50 and are currently involved with a
free/open source software project. You will be excluded from the study
if you are younger than 50, have not contributed to a free/open source
software project, or are not fluent in English. If you’re interested,
we will either do an in-person interview (if you are local to the
Corvallis or Portland area), or an interview over the phone (if you
are not local). The interview is expected to last no longer than an
hour. You will not be compensated for participating in this study.

The study title is Involving Older Adults in the Design and
Development of Free/Open Source Software – Part 2. The principal
investigator is Dr. Carlos Jensen.

If you would like to participate in the study, please read through the
eligibility document and consent document [1]. Please email us at
davidsje at onid.orst.edu to set up a time to determine your eligibility
and to set up a time/location to do an interview.


Thank you,

Jennifer Davidson                            Carlos Jensen
