<font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Thank you all for
spreading the word on the OSMF 2021 survey. </font><font
face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif"><font face="Helvetica, Arial,
sans-serif">At the moment, after 5-1/2 days, we have 1496
responses, of which 1116 are "full", meaning they included
demographic data that will allow us to do some cross-sectional
analysis </font> (almost 29% of respondents decline to provide
demographic data). But keep spreading the word. We have 16
languages available: (English, Chinese (Traditional; Taiwan),
French, German, Indonesian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Persian,
Polish, Portuguese (Brazilian), Russian, Spanish, Turkish,
Ukrainian, Vietnamese). If you know of a group that needs another
language and can link me with someone to translate the
questionnaire, please do so! I have become adept at copying and
pasting languages I don't understand into Lime Survey.</font>

<p><font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">We needed 1067
respondents to achieve a 3% error term at the 95% confidence
level, but now I'd like for us to push for a 2% error term.
As you all know, the larger the sample, the more accurate
the estimates, and the wider we cast our net, the less the
selection bias. For that we need 4160 respondents. We have
three weeks left in the survey so it is possible if we
continue to spread the word. Please help! The URL is <a

Please spread the word in whatever other languages you can,
please encourage OSMers to participate, please use all
available communication channels to reach as many corners of
the OSMverse as you can!<br>

for your support.</font></p>
