New Apache People-Roles-Projects data

Hot off the presses! Another update to the Apache people-roles-projects data:

Datasources 1578-1585 have updated information on people working on Apache projects, including committer lists, PMC lists, PMC chairs, etc.

Timezones are also now being collected as well.

This is an update to the original dataset described in the paper "Project Roles in the Apache Software Foundation: A Dataset" (2013), written by yours truly.

December 2013 data released

December data has been released. We have a few old standbys (fc, rf, ow, sv, al) and some hot fresh data as well.

What is new, you ask? Well, we have some IRC chat log data for the Apache project Camel [1]. A nice new social data set, all parsed and organized into relational database format for you to query.

Rubyforge goes into the sunset

We've been collecting Rubyforge data almost since the beginning. Last month we reported on the decline of Rubyforge in light of newer forges, like Github. Here's the chart we drew:

Now we've got this lovely pair of images to contend with:

New home for flat files

Many of you know that we provide flat files of our data for download by anyone at any time. Until recently we had hosted these on Google Code (before 2009 or so, we hosted them on Sourceforge). Recently, Google Code announced that projects will not be able to have file downloads as of January 2014. So we had to find a new home for our files.

6 Things to Know about Successful Open Source Projects

FLOSSmole and SRDA data were used in Internet Success: A Study of Open Source Software Commons by Charlie Schweik and Bob English, and now PBS.org ran a story summarizing key findings from the book. If you haven't read it yet, do it!

Two new data sets

Hi moles! I've got two new datasets for you to play with. These aren't perfect, but they're a start of a new type of dataset for FLOSSmole!

(1) Apache Roles: This dataset stores information about people affiliated with all the subprojects of the Apache Software Foundation, their roles, and what project they're working on with that role. Data sources include: Apache web site pages, board meeting minutes, etc. (Pre-Print on FLOSShub describing collection, curation, storage, sample queries)

FLOSSdata move is complete

Hello moles! I have completed the move of all our data from the Teragrid over to FLOSSdata and it is ready to go.

There are some new things to know:

1. New schemas for 'old', 'sf' and 'udd' data. You're used to seeing those in the 'ossmole_merged' schema, but they've been moved out into their own schemas.

2. Reminder that the 'sf' data is quite old and we recommend that you use SRDA instead.

3. There are some new tables coming for Apache data. More information on these will be forthcoming.
