Hello, I wanted to inquire about the project idea for summer of code - Web based project report that aims to aggregate information from a multitude of sources (mentioned ones are - Git, Bugzilla and mailing lists) into a unified web-interface along with useful statistics.
The project objective that I interpret from the description is to have a web-interface that can provide a quick overview of the activity and current status of an open source project. In that retrospect will this be similar to the popular site Ohloh (http://www.ohloh.net/) ? Given that ruby has been mentioned as the language of choice - Would using Ruby on Rails framework be considered a good idea ? Also, while Git and Bugzilla provide structured sources of information, I am not sure if I fully understand how mailing lists can be used to derive project statistics. I can think of using machine learning to infer which users are involved in development of which aspects of project to what extent - but a bit of elaboration in this regard would certainly help. As far as my background is concerned, I am a final year undergraduate engineering student from IIT Kharagpur, India and have completed my prior summer of code project in 2011 which used Ruby on Rails. I have been working off -and-on on projects involving ruby and c++ since. With regards, Gaurab Paul
