Dear friend, We are conducting a study on the motivation of the knowledge sharing on the Wikipedia community. The contributors’ experience to Linux is very important to the design and management of this knowledge platform. Would you please post the following on-line questionnaire message to the Wikipedia platform or forward the message to the members? After the survey is done, we will randomly select twenty persons and present them with USB 2GB Flash Drives. Besides, with each valid questionnaire, we will donate US $1 dollar to the Wikimedia Foundation. The result of this survey is analyzed in an anonymous way and is only regarded as the academic use. Please help us to complete the data collection. Thanks so much for your help.
