I am writing a research paper for my University's Advanced Composition course on discourse communities in free & open source software and I am looking for people willing to answer a few interview questions about the subject. I am reaching out to the GNU Emacs community specifically as I use Emacs everyday and it is perhaps the oldest free software community. So if anyone who considers themselves a part of Emacs community would be willing to answer some questions, let me know! Thomas Ingram Michigan Technological University Computer Science
