Open Source Project Analysis and BOINC

Yesterday Scott Hanselmanblogged about an analysis tool called ‘Ohloh‘. I checked out what it had to say about BOINC.

Direct project url:

It generates many charts and graphics about the changes it detects in the source tree over time. I have looked over quite a few things and got to heckle David a bit about some of the graphs. I really got a kick out of this chart:

To be fair though I need to point out that David checks in code using ‘davea’, ‘boincadm’, and ‘sorabji’ depending on where or when he has checked in code.

This is one chart we both got a kick out of:

How cool is that?
