Hi moles,
This message is for those of you who are actively using direct database access on the MySQL server at Teragrid/SDSC.
Our direct access database is being moved off Teragrid at SDSC and onto our own servers at flossdata.syr.edu.
To accomplish this move, I'm going to need to re-create our active user accounts on MySQL.
(This is a good opportunity to clean house anyway since there were a number of user accounts on there for people who have moved on or are no longer active.)

The datasource ID is 350, and we've got a fresh run of Google Code project names, thanks to Audris. Also the People collector is fixed up now, so we're getting both the userid and the user name if available. So note the new column in the people table.
Go here to get the data files

The November 2012 data has been released to Google Code. Go get it!
Note: we are in the process of copying from the Teragrid, so we will not be putting any more data up there for the time being. More details on direct database access will be forthcoming.

Huge thank you to our former student and flossmole alumnus Christian Funkhouser for working on re-writing the Launchpad collector to use the API.
Get the code!
The datasource_id for Launchpad in September is 342!

I often have my students tackle FLOSSmole data as a way of learning more about FLOSS, databases, data visualization, etc.
Here is an example of one of the graphs my students worked on last week, using Freecode data in FLOSSmole, R, and Illustrator.
January 2012 Freecode data set is available here.
