We are happy to announce the availability of 1.90beta. This new version implements over 30 new features where many of them were targeted at administration usability, code optimizations and speed improvements. For example it is now possible to copy a survey without importing/exporting, mark several tokens to send an invitation to, let user opt-out of your survey or have a massively improved interface to edit answers or (new term!) subquestions (see also our video). Also we introduced a new XML format to exchange surveys/question groups/question and label sets. (please be aware that we dropped support for CSV/SQL files older than version 1.5). Many of these features were possible by your donations (keep it on!) and through the support of LimeService, our LimeSurvey ASP platform.
There are many more great features and we rely on your feedback to find any remaining bugs - so if you find a issue with the new version don't hesitate to bomb us with your bug report!
Now go and download the new 1.90beta now or read the change log! |

LimeSurvey would like to introduce you to our new Google Summer of Code Students for 2010.
Please say hello to Amit Shanker (texens), Maarten Tielemans (ttielu) and Pieter-Jan Speelmans (MrP) who have been selected by the LimeSurvey team to work on projects this year.
 Maarten and Pieter-Jan will be working on building a Database Storage Engine for LimeSurvey 2. This is a critical project for the future of LS2 and we're very excited about it. They will be mentored by the LimeSurvey 2 lead developer Mac Duy Hai (macduy) and Jason Cleeland (jasebo) with assistance from David Olivier (machaven). If you are interested in the progress of LimeSurvey 2 and having input, please stay in touch with these students and the linked project page so you can contribute your ideas, suggestions and assistance as Pieter-Jan and Maarten's work progresses.
Maarten is a master student in computer science, majoring in secure software and minoring in software engineering. Pieter-Jan is a master student in computer science with a specialization in artificial intelligence. Both Pieter-Jan and Maarten are studying at the K.U.Leuven , Belgium.

Amit (left) is building a new question type for LimeSurvey 1, the much demanded File Upload Question. This has been on the wishlist of thousands of users for years, and I imagine there will be a lot of interest as his work comes along. Amit will be mentored by LimeSurvey's Project Leader Carsten Schmitz (c_schmitz) with assistance from Marcel Minke (mazi). As with the LimeSurvey 2 project, contributions from the wider community will be welcome and important.
Amit is a Senior Undergraduate student of the Department of Computer Science and Engineering at Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
The next few weeks are a time where our students can start getting involved with the LimeSurvey community, so do please say hello to them if you're online at the IRC channel! |

LimeSurvey is proud and excited to announce our participation in Google's Summer of Code 2010.
Our involvement last year was hugely successful, so we're naturally excited about the opportunities that will be presented to us this year.
We will be focussing (as with last year) on building core functionality in LimeSurvey version 2, but we may also be able to assign students to some LimeSurvey 1 development.
We encourage the broader LimeSurvey community to participate as fully as possible with the Summer of Code activities by communicating with students, contributing project ideas and helping students as they develop their project proposals and later as they implement them. GSoC is a community building event, so lets build our community :-)
If you are a interested student please have a look at our Google Summer of Code Wiki Pages , our ideas page and our discussion forums! and share your thoughts - tell us if you would be interested to take up on one of the tasks or if you have an even better idea you would like to develop in LimeSurvey 2 - the race has started! |

Although the version number changed very little this new version brings about 25 new features and many more fixes. Download/update now!
The last month has been very very busy for the LimeSurvey project - just in November we had over 40,000 unique visitors on the website with more than 14,000 downloads. To lower the bar for professionals we will be releasing a LimeSurvey Partner program soon where organizations will be able to offer their services around LimeSurvey. Also we are always looking for helper or people who would like to contribute to the success of this Open Source project - be it translators, coders or otherwise. Please

Over 60 applications have been made by students to participate in Google's Summer of Code with LimeSurvey this year. Our initial reviews of these applications indicate that they are of a very high standard, and our selection process will be ... [More] difficult.
Over the next week senior LimeSurvey developers will be going through these applications in detail trying to sort out the absolute top applications. We'll then submit our list to Google and hope to get as many as possible approved.
On the 26th of April Google will announce the succesful applications, and we'll post more news then. |

A user wrote to us: "Hello! Do you know which universities are currently using LimeSurvey? We use LimeSurvey at our university, and a few schools are looking into licensing options with another product. I would like to provide the schools with feedback on LimeSurvey and why they should be using it and refrain from pay high fees to a 3rd-party-licensed product. "
Please help us help him! If you know that your university/school is offering LimeSurvey as a survey tool please add your university/school name and your experiences to this thread in the forum!

We released 1.87RC5 today which will be hopefully the last release candidate before 1.87 stable. We fixed about 40 issues in this new release and a big part of the translations are up to date now (thanks to the work of numerous voluntary translators). Have a look at the changelog and download and test it so we can bring a full stable release soon! |
