There is a new version of the survey: https://survey.stackoverflow.co/

@havishak would you be willing to curate a dataset using the updated survey? You can find the directions on how to do so here.

@lgibson7 I'm willing to curate a dataset, although the original size of the full csv is close to 150 MB. Should I subset it so that it's within the size limits?

[jonthegeek]

@havishak If you can find a good way to subset it, we'd love to feature it! Consider removing columns if that will help; sometimes that can cut the total size a lot, particularly if the column has free-text data. Thanks!
