Awesome, thanks! I hope to hear more good news from you soon. Your blog is so silent ;)

Dear Ohloh-Hamster, I would appreciate it, if you could come by http://www.ohloh.net/p/plone and give us a new project analysis. Our enlistments all look fine for a number of weeks now, so there ... [More] shouldn't be anything to stop you. Your fanboy, Hanno [Less]

Thanks Robin! You have a wonderful service, I just hope you get more man-power in the future to make it even more awesome and cover weird cases like Plone's. Hanno

Hi, I do have one more request. Could you remove all Subversion history and code analysis for the project "plone" from your database? You still show the last analysis even though I removed all the ... [More] enlistments it was based on. There is valuable data in terms of "who uses this", "ratings" and many other things I'd like to keep if possible, so deleting the project would only be second choice. The way we tried to import our SVN data obviously didn't work. Thank you very much, Hanno [Less]

Thanks for the immediate response! I deleted the "Plone Collective" now and removed the enlistments for "Plone". Plone is set back to the best match "Ohloh doesn't support this project's source ... [More] control system". Tracking the "Plone Collective" in its entirety is a good indicator for contributions and overall liveliness of the project. Splitting all those hundreds of projects into individual projects is something too tedious to be done manually indeed. We'll just live without it now. In general Ohloh offers two very different kinds of statistics from my point of view, one is about code size of a project and its history, the other is about contributions to a project made by individuals. I was looking to represent the later number on ohloh. As many activities happen on branches and generating tags is a valuable contribution in the same way, those commits should be counted for the overall contributions statistic. The first number of project size is simply not trackable by the means ohloh offers for us right now. We have eight years of history with a CVS to SVN move, moved the trunks of all the different pieces that make up "Plone" around, renamed them, deleted them. And even the number of trunks which are part of the release now is very different over time. Things get in and move out, code is transfered from one SVN repository to another one, copyright transfered and licenses changed. I don't know how you would be able to cover all those actions in a generic way. What I've done instead is to manually create those "project size" statistics on a release-by-release basis (http://blog.hannosch.eu/2008/11/plone-loc-statistics-november-2008.html). Taking well defined snapshots in the form of releases and comparing their size works quite well for us and I'll keep doing that based on ohcount :) Thanks, Hanno [Less]

Hi. I just changed the enlistments for Plone (https://www.ohloh.net/p/plone) and Plone Collective (https://www.ohloh.net/p/plone-collective). Both repositories have over hundred "trunk"s in them that ... [More] where copied and moved around quite often. The normal approach of specifying those "trunk"s individually didn't work for us. As I enlisted both repo's in their entirety now, they could maybe benefit from the SVN sync approach if that is still available. Especially the "Collective" has 82650 revisions which is probably time consuming otherwise. Thanks, Hanno [Less]

Thanks! The enlistment is already updated and the project stats are regenerated - more than 200 new commits recognized for my personal stats :)

Hi, one of the enlistments of the Plone project (http://www.ohloh.net/projects/70) is not updating for a few weeks now. The problematic one is: http://svn.plone.org/svn/plone/CMFPlone/trunk It ... [More] seems this one is stuck in the "Step 1 of 3: Downloading source code history (Failed)" state while all other 67 enlistments work fine. As there are many more enlistments from the same SVN repo, I doubt it's a problem on our side. This one failing enlistments currently prevents the stats for the project being updated at all. Help from one of the generous gods of Ohloh would be most appreciated ;) Hanno [Less]
