Sorry, there's no darcs repo. Hosting it on hackage might be interesting, but finding the time to learn how to do it is kind of tough for me right now. I guess it depends on whether others want to contribute code to it. I took the raw data off of the main page (http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/archive/log) and wrote some quick and dirty Haskell to parse and process it. Basically I counted an upload as a unique event -- it didn't matter to me whether it was a bug fix upload on an existing project or a new project. The way I looked at it, each upload represented people contributing to the community. - Hitesh _______________________________________________ Haskell-Cafe mailing list Haskell-Cafe@haskell.org http://www.haskell.org/mailman/listinfo/haskell-cafe
