Re: Support in research about newcomers

Hello all,

thanks for those who already answered my survey. I am very glad to be
supported by this community.
If any of you want to contribute to my research, please feel free to answer
to survey or to send an email answering:
what are the main difficulties faced by newcomer when they want to start
contributing to OSS project?

Thanks once again
