Here at Canonical (the company behind Ubuntu) we are renewing our interest in opening our design process and bringing design to open source projects. I suspect everyone on this board has some opinions about how we should proceed. 
You can read about our motives on our blog or just jump straight to the survey.
Thanks in advance, and I promise to share our findings!
Thanks! Potentially interesting in this context is the academic research on the question of FOSS/UX collaboration in the last 20 years – see this report section for a summary.
Thank you, @jdittrich, for sharing this. Indeed, the first part matches my own experiences. Well, that is not a satisfying situation, but speaking about it openly is a good start to make things better.
The paper cites many other research papers, which seem interesting to me. However, I could not find the bibliography. Could someone please direct me there (@Erioldoesdesign you perhaps?).
Have you all a good day!
This is a great resource I hadn’t seen before, thanks 
Ah good catch - we didn’t create a reading list from this report as it wasn’t required by the funder - you can notice the citations as you read through by noticing the (name and year) format so find the papers referenced.
Alternatively here’s my own phd reading database :))))
Currently don’t have enough time to create and supplement a list of full citations, but if there are any questions, feel free to poke me, I should be able to find it quickly (and many are also on @Erioldoesdesign reading list)
I was unable to complete the form because this question assumes we have ever received a non-code design contribution, and thus would be able to answer:
Well, nice point 
The question is in the present tense - so what are your opinions and attitudes about non-code design contributions today?
