SWAMP supporter questionnaire

Today, SWAMP depends on grants. We keep access open and free for all visitors, and we intend to keep it that way. A paywall would limit the diversity and inclusion that are essential to our work.

To keep SWAMP free in the long term, we need other sources of income as well. We would like to find them together with the people who use and value SWAMP.

That is why we are asking for your opinion. This questionnaire asks how you would like to support SWAMP and which new services you would like us to develop. Your answers will help us decide what to develop first. Every answer helps us, whether or not you are able to give money.

The questionnaire is anonymous. It takes about five minutes. All questions are optional.
