RIP CassDroid

I'm sure most everyone is already aware, through other sites, or facebook, or twitter, but I just wanted to post it here too. CassDroid aka Cassy Wright passed away on Sunday. The details are unclear but there was a lot of unusual activity and posts on her facebook account.
I wanted to also propose some form of donation page for her family. I can't personally start it up, but I would hope that one of the XDA Admins would be willing to; I can pass along her family's contact info to whomever does take that responsibility.
Cassy was a valued member of the Android community with her friendly personality, her wit, and her vast knowledge of a large majority of the spectrum of Android phones. Many have already posted notes of condolence to her family and close friends.
Google is your friend if you want more posts/details.
Edit: Donation page already up by her friends

Please help me!

I'm working as a freelance web designer, currently trying to establish my own agency. Therefore I'm taking part in various contests for getting known and building a contact network.
I'm currently taking part in a template contest. Here is my entry:
https://store.fokus-cms.de/template/48/colorful/
Voting is based on tweets, likes and +1's. Being a vital part of XDA for years now, also contributing my own roms, I thought I'd ask you guys for your support. It just takes a second to vote but will really help me!
Thank you everybody, your help is really appreciated =)
i will help in voting but don't you think this is a wrong thread? there is the xda referral thread in here
Thank you so much =)

Survey regarding motivation factors in open source programming

Hey guys!
My name is Tobias Gawrisch and I'm a student of social science / sociology at Ruhr-University Bochum in Germany. I'm now starting with my master thesis and for that I want to do some research about what motivates programmers to work on open source software and other free software projects. Most people studying economics will say that money is the driving motivator in our economy but I think that especially the open source community is a fine example of people being motivated to work without the prospect of earning a lot of money with their work. This hypothesis is the basis for a short Web Survey in order to get some first hand data about the reason why programmers are "working for free". It will take about 10 min. max. and is, of course, completely anonymous. And I'll be glad to provide all my outcomes afterwards.
I would really appreciate your help in this matter, this would boost my master thesis a lot!
Here is the link to the survey: www (dot) soscisurvey (dot) de (slash) codesharingmotivation (I'm sorry but as a new user I'm apparently not allowed to post links. This post has permission from the Administrators, so maybe a moderator could alter this link to be clickable?)
This is an open survey, so please feel free to share it with everyone you see fit. I need as many participants as possible to get valid data.
I took the liberty to ask up front if it would be OK to post such a survey in this forum and received permission for that after using the contact form from the Administrators. This is a solely academic survey.
Regards,
Tobias Gawrisch
Just wanted to have a short shout out to everyone, half of the time for my survey has passed and I really need more participants, so please take part in this survey and pass it on to everyone you see fit! You would really help me out!
Regards,
Tobias
