Just a quick reminder that the Geospatial Developer Survey will be closing this Friday, May 9th.
We're at 262 respondents who are describing themselves like this:
I've gotten a few comments back along these lines, so I thought I'd try to clarify this a little. Yes, on questions where you get to select a particular implementation, most of the options will be .NET, with one exception - "Other". I did not do this to slight other platforms, or indicate that .NET is somehow superior. I live in .NET land, and I simply do not know a lot about non-.NET technologies. If you are doing automated builds with ant and maven, just pick Other and write it in (15 of you already have). I'll add these into the mix when crunching the numbers.
When will we see the results?
Survey Monkey does a great job of crunching out some simple results, and I expect to post a few interesting things during the week of the 19th.
