Hey everyone, Before we open sourced Launchpad we thought that it would be a good idea to split up the gargantuan swamp of files in lib/canonical/launchpad/ and move them into the 'lp' package, breaking them up by application and using dependency rules as a tie-breaker. Thus, bugs code lives in lp.bugs, which depends on lp.registry but not lp.code, everything depends on lp.services, etc. We called this project the Launchpad apocalypse.
I still think this is a really good idea. Knowing what you can safely ignore is a great way to tackle complexity, and this is the best way I know of reducing the amount of code that one has to think about. In any case, lib/canonical/launchpad is still a mess. We should get our files out of there into a place where people can find them. I've attached a graph that charts the progress we've made toward this. Canonical folk can find this graph at https://lpstats.canonical.com/graphs/CodeBaseFileCount/20090101/20100326/. Let's bring it down to zero. jml
