Here's how to cite FLOSSmole data:

Lots of new data for you to peruse out on our FLOSSmole Data Downloads Page.
Here's what's out there, recently added:
Google Code, March 2010 (GC) - list of all GC projects donated by Audris Mockus (HUGE THANK YOU TO AUDRIS FOR THIS!!)
Freshmeat, February 2010 (FM)
Objectweb, February 2010 (OW)
Rubyforge, February 2010 (RF)
Github, February 2010 (GH)
Free Software Foundation, February 2010 (FSF)
Savannah, February 2010 (SV)
and Sourceforge from December 2009 (SF)
We have another set of bugs to fix with Sourceforge collection this year, 2010, but those are forthcoming. I'm running a collection now. Hopefully the data will be good. We may even have stats this time. Hallelujah.
Also, thanks to my phenomenal undergraduate superstar Steven Norris, Tigris is coming soon!! and Debian after that. We are rocking the repository collection...
After long delay, the December Sourceforge data has been released. You may recall that over summer 2009, SF redesigned their web site which broke many of our crawlers and all of our parsers.
We have re-written these, and with only a few exceptions, have pretty much the same data as we always had.
Here are some release notes:
1. The Datasource_id=206
2. Donors data is not available in the Dec 2009 release. Donors were moved to their own page, so we have to add this to the collection for next time.
3. Statistics data is not available in the Dec 2009 release. We accidentally collected the wrong stats pages, so we had to throw these out and re-write for next time.
4. Status data (alpha, beta, mature, etc) is not available in the Dec 2009 release. This information is still being collected and kept by SF, but we can't find where it's being reported on their web site. If you have any ideas, send them to the mailing list (ossmole-discuss@lists.sourceforge.net).
Files are located at our Google Code page: http://code.google.com/p/flossmole/downloads/list
For those of you with database access on the sdsc server, I'll get these files over there ASAP.
December data has been released for the following forges:
(datasource-abbreviation-full name)
200-fm-freshmeat
201-rf-rubyforge
202-ow-objectweb
203-fsf-free software foundation
204-sv-savannah
205-gh-github
Sourceforge is in progress... it will be datasource_id=206.
Get the data here:
http://code.google.com/p/flossmole/downloads/list
Remember that the files marked "DM" are SQL files (mysql) but the files marked .txt are flat text files (delimited)
This month we have data from Freshmeat, Rubyforge, Objectweb, Savannah, Github, Free Software Foundation.
Downloads available at Google Code
Remember, the SQL is available in the datamart*.sql.bz files, the flat (delimited) data is available in the other files.
We're still working on getting our Sourceforge scraper back up and running, and we thank you for your patience.
October 2009 data has been released. Here are the forges we have this month:
Freshmeat
Rubyforge
ObjectWeb
Free Software Foundation directory
Savannah (new)
GitHub (new)
Sourceforge is undergoing a re-write, still, but we will be collecting again from there soon. In the meantime, don't forget that the June 2009 data is available, and also there is the Notre Dame data if you find that helps at all.
Enjoy!
Data has been released for FSF, FM, RF, OW. Go get it!! Have fun.
That Freshmeat data looks fairly popular. Anyone want to tell us how you use this data?
Savannah data has been released for July. See what you think! (Datasource_id = 182)
Hello moles, our July 2009 data has been released: this month we have Objectweb, Freshmeat, Rubyforge, Free Software Foundation directory.
