Freecode (formerly Freshmeat), the directory of Free and Open Source Software Projects, is no longer accepting new submissions. As of June 18, their site has this message on top:
The last full scrape of the Freecode RDF files took place in March. The data for the March 2014 Freecode collection is available for download from the FLOSSmole FC data site (or in the MySQL database).
RIP Freecode, nee Freshmeat.

Freecode (formerly known as Freshmeat) is a directory of free and open source software. FLOSSmole has been collecting Freecode/Freshmeat data since 2004. Periodically we provide snapshots as to the growth of the various forges and directories we collect data from. Here is a chart showing the rate of new project additions to Freecode/Freshmeat from January 1998 - March 2014. This data is based on the registration date recorded for each project and collected by FLOSSmole in June 2014(datasource_id 8079).

This chart shows the new project registrations for each year 1998-2014, and what programming language those projects were tagged with.
For example, 2003 was the highest year for new "C" projects to be registered with Freecode (then called Freshmeat).

We have collected Freecode (formerly Freshmeat) data since 2005. This chart shows the number of projects listed in the Freecode directory between 2005 and 2014. Each line represents one collection. (Collections are referred to in our database by the term "datasource_id".)
Here is the code used in the FLOSSmole database to generate the data list to create this graph:

Freecode allows each project to declare which other projects it is dependent upon. Here is a chart showing the projects that were declared dependencies most frequently. PHP was the project selected most often by other projects as a dependency.
Here is the SQL code used to generate this data set from the FLOSSmole database:

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.
This chart shows the new project registrations for each year 1998-2011, and what programming language those projects were tagged with.
For example, 2003 was the highest year for new "C" projects to be registered with Freecode (then called Freshmeat).
