[WAS] Re: Stats - commits by company for CloudStack
I am preparing a blog on metrics analysis for our 12 months in incubation.
but I will stick to individuals and only mention 'domains' extracted from email addresses.
I also prepared a movie of our git repo using Gource, it's already staged on youtube and ready for release on Monday.

that's why I always say it's qualitative…
there is some grey zone in there….

FWIW, I think it's going to be hard to tease out exact contributions by
company since I don't know we're perfectly tracking contributions like
translations yet and someone would have to do the mapping between
companies and email addresses.
When I was writing for RWW I covered some of that, and it's non-trivial
at best trying to identify all the contributions correctly - even
getting individuals right is tricky, since some folks may submit
patches, etc. from different email addresses and not map up well.
Best,

Thanks Sebastien. I'll be on the lookout for your post. The company slant was based on the a older post on OpenStack that showed how much was community driven vs. Red Hat, Cisco and Rackspace.
