I took a look and saw that (similar to other such surveys I have seen) 
the survey questions assume stereotypical open source project models 
and dynamics (as popularized by the press) which rarely actually 
exist.  Maybe they apply to multi-user avatar-based game development 
in Java, but they are simply not pertinent to the type of developers 
on this list.

Maybe you can find a different list to post on which is more amenable 
to such surveys.
