[OSM-talk] from Allan Mustard regarding the OSMF survey

[Allan Mustard]

Thank you all for spreading the word on the OSMF 2021 survey.  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 (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.

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
https://osmf.limequery.org/281662  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!

Many thanks again for your support.

cheers,
apm
