Hello Omekans!

In the past few years, we have been delighted to see more and more
developers of both themes and plugins contacting us on our <a
href="https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/omeka-dev">developer
list</a> and on the <a href="http://omeka.org/forums/">forums</a>. That
has made us curious about who all of you are, and what can we do better
to help you.

With that in mind, we've put together a short survey to get to know you
better. It'll take about ten minutes. We're asking about where you are,
what kinds of places you work for, and what kinds of Omeka development
you do.

We'll use this information to guide our documentation and outreach
efforts. Personal information, of course, will not be exposed or sent to
others.

We'd like to hear about any level of Omeka development, from building a
plugin to hacking a couple lines of a theme. All those activities are
important to us, and knowing about the people and projects that spur the
activity will help tremendously. Please fill out and share <a
href="http://goo.gl/forms/of19fFALqJ">the survey</a> if you have written
or hacked Omeka code.

We'll start compiling and analyzing the data on February 19, so
responses before then are much appreciated.

Many thanks,

Patrick Murray-John
Director of Omeka Developer Outreach

Please forgive the double-posting, but wanted to give a last reminder
that the Omeka team wants to learn more about who Omeka devs are, where
they are, what they're doing, and -- most importantly -- how we can help
your work.

Original message is below. TL;DR: There's a survey asking Omeka devs at
http://omeka.org/blog/2016/02/02/who-are-our-omeka-developers

So far, 13 countries in 4 continents (come on Africa and Asia!
Antarctica would be awesome) are represented by librarians, developers,
CTOs, archaeologists, analysts, sysadmins, freelancers and more.

We want to hear from as many coders, at any level, before we start
studying results on February 19.

Thanks, all.
