Open Mainframe Project Summer Mentorship 2026 - Linisha (mentee)

This short survey (about 5 minutes) gathers real-world experience of mainframe modernization, what proved hard, how converted code was verified, and where AI-assisted tools did and did not help. Responses will be used for an Open Mainframe Project whitepaper.

The survey is anonymous. We do not collect your name, employer, or contact details, and no response will be attributed to an individual or organization. There are no right answers — candid experience, including "it went fine," is exactly what's useful.
