openlaws.eu survey
[Switch to German language: https://docs.google.com/a/wass.at/forms/d/1ZKdyVLkP7CHTwKuBYbreL2fps_2oNm8LPR_1cu0lCM0/viewform ]

www.openlaws.eu will be an online platform for legal professionals and for citizens to better find and organize legal information and to collaborate with others.

This survey has only the questions you see on this page plus a few optional questions on your background on a second page. How long will it take you?

- 3 min. if you only check the boxes (which would be already helpful)
- 5 min. for the user with some ideas for a feature or two (which would be really nice)
- 9 min. for the visionary guru with a complete set of great ideas (which would be awesome)

Whichever category you self-identify with, we are very grateful for your contribution!!

The survey is open-ended and we are very interested in the opinion of both legal practitioners and non-experts. All feedback and ideas that you submit is anonymous and will be attentively reviewed and integrated into community proposals. All articulate proposals relevant to the openlaws platform will be distributed among the community regardless of a difference of opinion with the administrators of this web site! You will see the results of others immediately after having filled-out the survey. The final survey summary will be published under a Creative Commons 4.0 license (BY SA).

Thank you for your support!

The project is co-funded by the European Union.
