Sure :) Haven't seen any emails about that yet, tho.

Sounds good.

Yes, there is always a question about hackerspace/makerspace/fablab,
etc... although these are different kind of spaces, I guess what we
want to do here is above that distinction. Somehow, trying to figure
out what are the differences is maybe something the questionnaire
should try to help with...

Well... I'm not really sure I can help by being lead/drive on this, I
am already way too busy on other topics.

My contribution to this would be to help spread the questionnaire, and
also, before that, help making it relevant, maybe spread it to few
contacts I have to check what they have to say about the first
versions we'll come up with.

Something else: some guy did one or two similar studies some time ago.
It should be referenced somewhere in hackerspaces.org. It was more
about the demographics of hackerspaces... might be of interest,
though.
