이 템플릿을 선택하는 이유
- Includes dedicated governance-transparency items (decision-making transparency, contributor input opportunities) rather than generic project-satisfaction questions.
- Pairs closed-ended opinion scales with an open-text question on what specifically slows down contributions, plus a final open-text catch-all for anything unaddressed.
- Includes a ranking question so maintainers get a prioritized list of improvement areas (e.g., documentation, review quality, responsiveness) instead of a flat satisfaction score.
- Adds an AI follow-up interview segment where an AI moderator can probe deeper into a contributor's experience, and every response is automatically quality-scored and rolled into an auto-generated report.
SurveySparrow
Project Satisfaction Survey TemplateThis is a general-purpose project satisfaction template aimed at client/stakeholder or team-project feedback, not open-source contributor or governance dynamics specifically. It's a fielding-ready static form that a maintainer could adapt, but none of its questions address contribution entry points, governance transparency, or maintainer responsiveness out of the box. Useful mainly as a generic satisfaction baseline rather than a purpose-built open-source community survey.
잘하는 점
- Ready-to-deploy template with SurveySparrow's conversational, mobile-friendly survey format
- Broad applicability across any 'project' context, so it's quick to launch with minimal customization
- Likely supports standard question types (rating scales, open text) for basic satisfaction tracking
아쉬운 점
- Static question set with no adaptive AI follow-up probing into individual contributor answers
- No open-source-specific coverage of governance transparency, contribution entry-point clarity, or maintainer responsiveness
- No voice AI interview option or automated per-response quality scoring/report generation
