Hi

My name is Jian Zhen and I am doing a survey on the use of OOP.  The purpose
of the survey is for me to learn about the different views about OOP and
how developers/researchers break things into objects.

This is my second attemp to post this survey.  I want to take this time
to thank each and everyone of you who replied my first survey.  Sorry I
am unable to thank each of you personally.

I know most of the people here experts of OOP.  If you have a few minutes,
please try to answer the following questions.  When you are finished,
please send your response to jlz@cs.purdue.edu.

Thank you very much
