Topic: Ohloh CVS activity seems to be going berserk

Thanks, Jason!

Just to clear up the timeline a bit:

1. Four weeks ago Sourceforge pulled our anonymous access completely, citing "excessive usage".
2. Within days we set up several anonymous mirror sites to compensate.
3. Three weeks ago Nicolas switched "Moodle" on ohloh.net to use one of the mirror sites (UK)
4. Since then we've had the 80,000 accesses from ohloh.net to that mirror site
5. Just now I switched "Moodle (contrib)" on ohloh.net to use the same mirror site (UK)

Topic: Ohloh CVS activity seems to be going berserk

Hi,

Our anonymous CVS service at sourceforge (for the Moodle project) was closed due to rampant activity, and it was only after we set up our own mirrors (and thus had our own stats) that we discovered that the culprit was probably ohloh.net.

We have around 80,000 accesses to the repository from ohloh in the past 20 days. (See http://tracker.moodle.org/browse/MDLSITE-182 for details)

Is that normal or has some server process gone beserk?

Let us know if we can help to make this process more efficient. We love the stats ohloh.net provides - thank you!

Cheers, Martin

Topic: project "moodle" has inaccurate numbers

For some reason only the last year of CVS activity is being analyzed for the project "moodle" ...

http://www.ohloh.com/projects/25

The correctly-enlisted CVS repository contains about 4 years of commits.

Topic: Inaccurate figures

Originally, the figures showed all of our contrib code as well, which distorted the figures a bit, so I edited the repository list to narrow it down to what people would normally call "Moodle".

However, now the figures are really inaccurate. It says the Moodle project is only a year old, when the CVS repository goes back about 4 years.

Hopefully it will straighten out, but in the meantime, ignore all these numbers. :-)
