[Openqvis-developers] FASD project: Online survey launched

[<ben...@id...>]

Dear Open Source developer

I am doing a research project on "Fun and Software Development" in which I kindly invite you to participate.
You will find the online survey under http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/. The questionnaire consists of 53 questions and you will need about 15 minutes to complete it.

With the FASD project (Fun and Software Development) we want to define the motivational significance of fun when software developers decide to engage in Open Source projects. What is special about our research project is that a similar survey is planned with software developers in commercial firms. This procedure allows the immediate comparison between the involved individuals and the conditions of production of these two development models. Thus we hope to obtain substantial new insights to the phenomenon of Open Source Development.


With many thanks for your participation,
Benno Luthiger


PS:
The results of the survey will be published under http://www.isu.unizh.ch/fuehrung/blprojects/FASD/.
We have set up the mailing list fa...@we... for this study. Please see http://fasd.ethz.ch/qsf/mailinglist_en.html for registration to this mailing list.

[Openqvis-developers] Compilation problem with Red Hat 8

[Sean D. <se...@am...>]

Hi..

I'm new to Linux and I'm an experienced Java programmer but not a C++ 
one. I've gotten OpenQVis to compile on Windows 2000 but not on my Red 
Hat machine.

I've downloaded the following software:
sgi-OpenInventor-devel-2.1.5-9.i386.rpm
Coin-2.0.2.tar.gz
jpegsrc.v6b.tar.gz
libpng-1.2.5.tar.gz
zlib-1.1.4.tar.gz
OpenQVis_cvs_27_02_2003.tar.gz

I can compile and install (via the make routines) the first five modules 
- but OpenQVis generates the following compilation error from 'make':



/usr/lib/qt3/bin/moc SoQtColorEditor.qt.H > SoQtColorEditor.qt_moc.cpp
g++ -g -DUSE_NV_EXTENSIONS -DDO_NOT_INCLUDE_EXTENSIONS   -c

gmake[1]: Leaving directory `/home/sean/SOSS/OpenQVis/src/qwidgets'
make: *** [qwidgets] Error 2

I'm not sure if the warnings are significant. Any suggestions would be 
appreciated.

Thanks!

Sean
