Hi!

 

Each quarter, Qingye Jiang, an employee of Eucalyptus, publishes a report of the community and contribution metrics of OpenStack, OpenNebula, Eucalyptus, and CloudStack.  He has just published his report for Y13Q2

 

http://www.qyjohn.net/?=3297

 

It’s in Chinese, but he typically publishes an English translation a few days later.

 

Short summary of OpenStack’s position:

We are still in the lead and accelerating.

However, CloudStack is also accelerating and growing fast.

We are far and away best at bringing in new contributors.

 

The data sources for discussion thread metrics for OpenStack are

https://lists.openstack.net/openstack/

https://answers.launchpad.net/openstack/

http://lists.openstack.org/pipermail/*/

https://ask.openstack.org/

 

Is he missing any public discussion forums about OpenStack of import that we should bring to his attention?

 

His also mines the git repos for quantum, keystone, glance, horizon, swift, cinder, and nova.  This misses the contributions by incubation projects, preincubation projects, the infrastructure projects, and client projects.

 

Share and enjoy.
