All Mozillians: please take a few minutes to complete this survey and then share this link with the communities you work with.
We'll be making use of this research during the Portland work week to understand the needs and issues with participation capacity and community health that we'll need to address next year.
If you're interested in learning more about the survey and getting the results when they're publishing, feel free to subscribe to the community building mailing list.
