  • Abstract
    Various research approaches have been proposed to study the OSS movement. To facilitate this OSS related research, we designed and implemented an online research collaborator)!. It is not only a repository including over two years of monthly database dumps from SourceForge.net, but also an online community supporting OSS related research. We describe the design and implementation of the research collaboratory and usage statistics for the year 2006.
