Sourceforge Bug Tracker data and analysis scripts

Just wanted to put in a pointer to the data and scripts that we used for our recent First Monday paper, The social structure of Free and Open Source software development. This data is part of OSSmole and Megan and I are working away currently merging out databases. But it is available now on the Syracuse FLOSS research site if people want to jump in.

That's really _real_ research, when you provide data and tools attached to your paper. So, congratulations!Regarding this issue, there is even a new ICSE workshop, the PROMISE workshop, that specifies that only submissions with the set of data (which will be offered publicly) on which papers are based are considered. Probably this is the trend we should follow in libre software research as well and yours is a very interesting first step!Gregorio
