Open Source Software Developer Survey - Now Open

open source

The European Commission has launched a survey targeted at FOSS developers to understand the needs of free and open source developers and their communities.

Survey questions address two areas:

  • What the EU can do to help developers improve the security and integrity of open source software.
  • How the EU can help developers and engage with open source communities.

The survey is an opportunity for developers to make their voices heard in the discussion on how to improve and sustain open source software.

The FOSS developer survey is part of the EU-FOSSA 2 project, an initiative from the EU to improve the security and integrity of the most critical open source software in use. Besides the survey, other project activities include bug bounties, hackathons, and engagement with open source developer communities.
