I've just completely rearranged the repos for Chained via svndumpfilter ... I nuked the old enlistment and added three new ones. Pwease could you clear out the code history? (http://www.ohloh.net/projects/5311/analyses/latest)

After a created my ohloh account I saw that I can create an avatar image on gavatar site. This was created but my gavatar image on ohloh doesn't changed. How can I do a "refresh"?

@dartar Yeah, of course, Trac should be in as well. Didn't meant that list to be exhaustive.;) XML-RPC access is good. Jira supports it as well (when enabled) and I tend to use it quite a lot. @Jason ... [More] Personally I've no preference, mail list or issue trackers are both interesting and important. Actually I find quite interesting what you outlined ... look for who's discussing with whom and I guess people would tend to join the discussion on topics with certain keywords only. I've done bit of this myself having written small tool looking over forum archives for correlation between keywords and authors of various posts ... it can be quite a fun. So if it is easier to go for mail lists then go for it. Another thing which could be done in the future is to try to get some insight into build process. I would guess quite few projects have some kind of online continuous build system listening to changes in repository and then building the stuff and executing all tests ... could be interesting to peek into results of those as well.

.svg is more an image sourcefile. (iirc, its an xml-based format.) Its used for vector-based graphics. .blend, again, is image-based, but, still, "source" (this time, for 3d models.) it is mainly ... [More] used in the open source 3d modeller, "Blender" (blender3d.org) LOC count... itsn't terribly meaningful, however, they are still useful for counting as a source contribution. Not everyone that contributes to open source projects, or any projects, really, are programmers. Some, are artists. [Less]

hi clrg, interesting concept. I'm mostly ignorant of these file types. I assume people use tools to generate the contents of these files, no? Would counting the LOC of an .svg or .blend file be even a little meaningful?

Heh, I was figuring out when/where I posted this... Now I found your reply. Typically licenses are declared in the top of each file, and not in a JavaDoc comment (for Java files), identified with /* ... [More] instead of / I would limit the scanning for licenses to just the first comment block or something similar [Less]

The wicket project report shows files with GPL/LGPL licenses, which are incompatible with the Apache license. However there is no way to tell which files are in violation.

Yes, I just restarted the job again. This server looks a little troublesome; it will probably require a lot of love to get this job completed.

Seems to have failed again.
