Topic: Bazaar-NG support

+1 for me too. I started my open source project on launchpad bzr. I would really like to add my project here and get some stats.

Topic: COCOMO analysis suggestion

I had an idea, what if you analysed the bug tracker as well as the source code?

My idea is that you will be able to directly see which bugs were fixed in the VCS by looking for the commit closest to the time it was reported "fixed" in the tracker.

You would have another factor for your COCOMO analysis which could be used for determining the quality of the software written?

Topic: bzr code analysis, hows it coming?

I was wondering if we could get a status report on how Bazaar integration is coming?

My project uses bzr and I've love to add the code listing. :)

Topic: ohloh slashdotted

Nice new design.. ohloh:Root?

Topic: A Nice Problem To Have

Is this why two of my projects svn aren't downloading for analysis?

I can't wait to see the new design. ^_^

Topic: Small idea I had

Small idea I had.

You could do some kind of automated compile of SVN (or whatever you're using) snapshots on multiple architectures and build up a list of how successful you were at compiling on that OS.

This would be useful to see if an SVN snapshot is a bad revision but it could also have other statistical information too such as how platform independent a project is, how often their trunk won't build on another OS.

Understandably you'd need a few machines running to do this automated testing, such as Windows, Linux and Mac for a start but it's just an idea I wanted to voice.

Edit: Actually thinking about it you could do it all on one machine using a virtual machine...

Topic: License Question

You could use an existing license such as the GPL or BSD and then just have a "credits" file with a list of everyone who contributed to your project?

Topic: Support for bzr

Is there any update on the Bazaar support? I too am interested in this. (^_^)

Topic: Names instead of numbers

I like this idea too, although I can see it being a problem if there are two people called AndrewFenn :D

Topic: Steady Progress Towards the Right Answer

Hell no! More social networking! We already have the sites to know about the projects.

You should do something like sourceforge's "project of the month" thing but a little more interesting.

I think for your site it is about striking the balance which is important.
