I took the survey. The LA Technology Council is the one sponsoring the
survey. Also, I went to a meeting not long ago, the one at the Saint's
Training Camp, and they mentioned how they were behind the survey.

For those of you concerned about privacy, the only bit of personal
information they ask for (that I remember) is your email. If I start
getting spam from them (or someone else related to it), they will get a
nice LARTing.

The only real information they seem to be interested in is the skills
and experience of the respondents.
