2012 in retrospect and a Happy New Year from the Libcloud team

Dear users, developers and team members!

2012 is slowly coming to an end and Libcloud team wishes everyone a happy
and successful new year 2013!

2012 has been another great year for us and we have surpassed 2011 in
pretty much every aspect.

Here is a short list of things which have been accomplished and important
events which have happened in 2012:

- 1 new committer Ilgiz Islamgulov (ilgiz) has joined the team.
- 128 new JIRA issues have been opened (total of 265). Out of those 128
issues, 108 are now marked as 'resolved'.
- SVN repository has had a total of 320 commit. More than 50% of those
commits were patches from external contributors.
- We had our first Google Summer of Code student which worked on a project
named "Libcloud REST" (https://github.com/islamgulov/libcloud.rest). The
goal of the project is to expose Libcloud functionality over HTTP.
- Tomaz gave a talk titled "Avoiding Vendor Lock-In Using Apache Libcloud"
at CloudOpen 2012 in San Diego
- We now finally have some more user friendly documentation and examples on
the website - http://libcloud.apache.org/docs/
- We held a first in person meetup at the Rackspace San Francisco office in
the beginning of the year (http://libcloudmeetup.eventbrite.com/)
- We had a total of 7 releases (0.8.0, 0.9.1, 0.10.1, 0.11.0, 0.11.1,
0.11.3, 0.11.4) and over 65.000 downloads / installs on PyPi (
http://pypi.python.org/pypi/apache-libcloud/)
- Github mirror has been starred by 266 users (
https://github.com/apache/libcloud)

Thanks again to everyone for their work and contributions and lets make
2013 even better :)

I will post those numbers in a more machine readable format (JSON) in the
next couple of weeks. This way it will be easier for us to track those
metrics on a year over year basis.

Numbers retrieved on: 2012-12-25.
Sources for those numbers: JIRA, Libcloud website, PyPi, Ohloh.net, Google

I read this after being awake for five minutes and had a sudden moment
of terror.

Haha, yes.

I know it is a bit early but it's better to do it sooner than never :)

<troll>Also, remember what they were talking about 2012 and the end of the
world thing? I want to be on the safe side! </troll>

I just assumed Tomaž sent an email from the future.

That sound you hear is dozens of readers of this mailing list sighing
in relief, after discovering they hadn't missed a deadline by a month.
