Dear friends,
I have been reading your postings to this mailing list. I have really enjoyed reading about your
collaborative creative activities and your perspectives on the free/open source
software.
My name is Tiebing Shi and I am a Ph.D. student at Queen's University in
Canada. I am very interested in learning more about the Free/Open Source
Software Community. The study that I am doing for my Ph.D. thesis is called
"User Creativity: An Investigation of the Free/Open Source Software
Community."
I sincerely invite you to participate in my study. I would
like to interview you in your role as a developer and/or user in the legendary Org-Mode Community. Your experiences of developing and using Org-Mode program and your perspectives on the Free/Open Source
Software will greatly help me to understand the creative activities of the Org-Mode Community. If your time permits, I would like to interview
you via phone. The phone interview will last about 1 hour. If you like, we can
conduct our interview via email.
Please be kindly informed that there is no obligation to participate in this
study. But your participation will be highly appreciated. Your confidentiality
will be protected. For example, your real name will NOT be used in my thesis
and future publications. Further information about this study and our interview
will be provided to you upon request.
Please respond to this email to let me know your interest in participating in a
phone or an email interview with me. If you select the phone interview format,
please select a time for an interview that is most convenient for you. Please
also let me know your phone number and time zone (my time zone is Eastern
Daylight Time) so that I can call you at your local time you select.
Should you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. I will
respond to you as soon as possible.
Thank you for your support and I look forward to talking with you.
Sincerely,
Tiebing Shi

The first thing you'll find out is that we are a bit fussy about
email. I suggest you switch to an email client that understands how to
send plain text, and send only plain text to mailing lists. As I'm
sure you understand, every community has its own definitions of
professionalism.
Although the community is different, you may find the following page helpful:
