Survey: Identifying and Fixing Undesirable Behaviors Across Software Versions

Hello,

As part of my PhD at the University of Lille, I am currently conducting a study on how developers handle certain bug scenarios. 

The goal is to better understand current practices, the tools used, and developers' needs regarding debugging in a specific scenario. 

You can find the survey at the following address:

https://sondages.inria.fr/index.php/462191?lang=en

Your participation in this short questionnaire (5 - 10 minutes) would greatly help us analyze existing methods and identify potential gaps in the available solutions. 

This survey will be open for 6 weeks (until May 15th, 2025). The responses will be analyzed and included in a scientific publication. The results will be available here.

If you can, please feel free to share this questionnaire with other developers who might be interested. 

Every response counts and will contribute to a better understanding of the community's practices! 

A big thank you for your help and time. 

Best regards, 

Rémi Dufloer

Bonjour,

Dans le cadre de ma thèse à l’Université de Lille, je mène actuellement une étude sur la manière dont les développeurs gèrent certains scénarios de bugs.
L’objectif est de mieux comprendre les pratiques actuelles, les outils utilisés et les besoins des développeurs en matière de debugging sur un scénario précis.

Voici le lien du questionnaire:

https://sondages.inria.fr/index.php/462191?lang=en

Votre participation à ce court questionnaire (5 - 10 minutes) nous aiderait énormément à analyser les méthodes existantes et à identifier les éventuelles lacunes dans les solutions disponibles.
Ce survey est ouvert durant 6 semaines (fermeture le15 mai 2025).Les réponses obtenues seront analysées et feront l'objet d'une publication scientifique.Les résultats seront publiésici.

Si vous le pouvez, n’hésitez pas à partager ce questionnaire avec d’autres développeurs susceptibles d’être intéressés.
Chaque réponse compte et contribuera à une meilleure compréhension des pratiques de la communauté !

Un grand merci pour votre aide et votre temps.

Bien cordialement,

Dufloer Rémi
Doctorant, Université de Lille

Drupal musings 4: Modules and the nursing masquerade

Periodically I go through the list of available modules for Drupal both the current version and that in development - at present that is versions 6 and 7.

Reading the descriptions and reflecting on a module's functionality it is surprising where they can take you. Some of the modules stand out, prompting thoughts of potential applications. This is not just a case of descriptions fulfilling their role. Some of them shout out just by virtue of their name.

'Organic groups' will change to 'Group' in Drupal 7. If there is one thing about groups in nursing they are organic - whether that's disciplinary groups, groups held by nurses. Groups are a basic part of the structure and content of Hodges' model, and so it may be well worth factoring in the Group module from the outset.

As I read about the Masquerade module:

The masquerade module is designed as a tool for site designers and site administrators. It allows a user with the right permissions to switch users. While masquerading, a field is set on the $user object, and a menu item appears allowing the user to switch back. Watchdog entries are made any time a user masquerades or stops masquerading.

I thought of the tribes and camps within nursing and health care in general. Have we moved on? Well OK, let's see how holistic, integrated, multidisciplinary nursing is these days: picture then the nurse in medicine, surgical, operating theatre acting as a mental health nurse, learning disability nurse and vice versa?

Can we spot the imposter? One suspects (surely) that given a technical case study, care scenario then the game would be up very quickly. As to basic nursing care situations, there might be an interesting party there?
