Projects Reviewed
- Sugar - liked the structured approach and appears to be a good example of a properly structured HFOSS project. Surprised the blog, had spam posts on it. Seems to detract from quality of project
- Sahana Eden - Feel that this project could be a good one for introducing software that could apply directly to "real world" programming challenges.
General Observations
- Surprised at how IRC is a common tool for these projects
- Surprised at the low level of communication on IRC for projects, expected more conversations
- Helpful to have specific needs highlighted for different roles.
- Think the documentation aspect of projects could be a good way to reinforce good software engineering practices with students.
Foss Field Trip
- Part 1 - Github
* 20,758 repository results matching key word "education" * dates of commits, days of week of commits * 400 repository results matching key word "humanitarian" * 238 repository results matching query "disaster management"
- Part 2 - OpenHub
* 2,260 repository results matching key word "education" * No code on github * 4 similar projects * Summary, in a nutshell, licenses, code lines, commits, languages, contributors * 30 humanitarian, 30 disaster management * Not sure on why no activity * Latest and most active organizations, stats by sector, * Open Hub - 3 months a go, Github - 4 days ago * Difference due to delay in analysis on openhub, but openhub gives more structured metadata on project * Sites provide different level of detail and openhub provides a cross-cut of organization activity
