For those of you who are willing to help, I am attaching a .doc version of the
same file if you were not able to open the earlier attachment.
Thanks,

Dear Gentoo Developers,

I am a student at the American University of Beirut (AUB) currently working for
a Masters degree in Engineering Management. I am in the process of conducting
research work on organizational aspects of the open source software development
process. Accordingly, I’ve devised a survey to which I am inviting a number of
open source software developers to fill out.

I would thus very much appreciate your help in filling out the survey, attached
herein. If you believe other developers may be willing to fill it out, kindly
send them this message.

If you have any comments or feedback on the content or style of survey, or if
you believe you can provide other information that may be useful for my thesis,
please feel free to contact me.

Thank you in advance,
Hania Sabbidin
Engineering Management Programme
American University of Beirut

What about an ascii text or OpenDocument?

Would be better just put a link and let who is interested go and fetch 
the document he/she likes.

Please avoid sending large proprietary attachment on mailing lists.

I think the very concept of free software and interchangeable data
formats has eluded him.

 His first posting had an attachment in SXW (OOo Writer 1.x) format.

Thank you for pointing this out. Unfortunately, when I got a question from a
programmer saying "what on earth is a .sxw file?", I thought I had to post
another format.
And by the way, it's a she!
