Thanks - testing it out with http://www.ohloh.net/projects/OLPC_XS - we'll see how it works...

Hi! Some projects (OLPC, for example) have their work split in a ton of repositories. Right now I am hacking on at least half a dozen git repos, as part of my job. How do I track that?

I work a lot on PHP and Perl projects -- and you have me pretty well profiled ;-) and I have nothing for or against either. But I think your metrics are wrong. Most Perl projects are published ... [More] mostly packaged in library-centric ways in CPAN. Whole CMSs are published this way, and what you do is add a few mod_perl config options to your apache config. So CPAN is where the action is for Perl code. Unfortunately, as CPAN doesn't have a centralised SCM, it's very hard to track. I cannot see any evidence of ohloh tracking CPAN at all. In the case of PHP, most of the work is happening in environments like SourceForge that are easier for ohloh to track. This is because there is almost no code in PEAR (perhaps because the PEAR repo is much newer, the tools greener and the approach rather elitist). So the level of libification is lower and people just copy code around a lot more. In that sense, the approach is less sophisticated. Perhaps PHP still has more dynamic -- I don't know. But your stats don't include the main repo where Perl code is being developed/published, so there is no way to tell. regards martin [Less]

How can I make comments about the ohloh summary? The Moodle ohloh summary indicates potential problems between PHP and GPL licenses -- which is correct. Conscious of this, every time we have included ... [More] a PHPL project we have requested explicit permission to dual-license, which was graciously granted. It would be great to be able to add 'developer notes' to those 'summary items' so we could explain this better ;-) thanks! martin [Less]

Currently the top projects are by stack. However, can we order them by number of developers, SLOC, etc? can we see their 'positioning' across those metrics when looking at a project? thanks!

After I created my acct in ohloh and associated it with my multiple personas out there... which were fairly high scored, my score is 1. :-) Or is there a cronjob that updates the scores?
