Ever wonder where your project stacks up compared to the hundreds of other projects in the Linux community? Or how your contributions compare with others in the community? Want to find new ways to keep up with the contributors on your project? In this data-driven talk, we will take a deep dive into the Linux community, exploring the most active projects and the top contributors across all Linux projects. Using Ohloh data, we will look at overall Linux project trends over time, key inflection points, and dig into specific projects to get a better understanding of the dynamics of the Linux community. Through the analysis of comparing projects based on activity, contributors and contributions, project leaders will gain valuable insights into how to identify actionable events within their own projects that can help keep project teams healthy and active.
