(You could also reduce and offer a text field "other.) Resources: I wouldn't put git-scm.com and the pro-git book into the same item. git-scm.com was supposed to be "the" git community website (and also "the" reference on git), and the fact that it looks like a pro-git book sales platform is a different matter. An interesting question would be: "What is the first source you conside= r Git?", or even: "What is the Git homepage?"... Really, getting input on what "the Git homepage" should be like would be nice, but not comparabl= e to previous surveys. In any case, thanks for taking care of the survey again! Michael
