<pre>I'd like to send you the link for a survey which a number of international supporters for Research Software Engineering have put together recently. Our effort has been lead by Simon Hettrick from the Software Sustainability Institute. A blog about the results from 2018 is here: <a href="https://www.software.ac.uk/blog/2019-02-15-rse-survey-2018-results">https://www.software.ac.uk/blog/2019-02-15-rse-survey-2018-results</a><o:p></o:p></pre>

<pre>We would be delighted to have as many as possible answers from persons who write software used in research. So, please have a look at this link for more information and the questions: <a href="https://softwaresaved.limequery.com/386272?lang=en">https://softwaresaved.limequery.com/386272?lang=en</a><o:p></o:p></pre>
