-My talk at the [[http://conferences.mongueurs.net/fpw2009/][FPW]] this
-year is about the shape of the Perl and CPAN community. This talk was
-prepared by some [[http://labs.rtgi.eu/][$coworkers]] and me.
-
-We generated two maps (authors and modules) using the CPANTS' data. For
-the websites, we crawled a seed generated from the CPAN pages of the
-previous authors.
-
-Each of this graphs are generated using a
-[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Force-based_algorithms][force base
-algorithm]], with the help of [[http://gephi.org/][Gephi]].
-
-All the map are available in PDF files, in creative common licence. The
-slides are in french, but I will explain the three maps here.

-*** CPAN's modules
-
-The first map is about the modules available on the CPAN. We selected a
-list of modules which are listed as dependancies by at least 10 others
-modules, and the modules who used them. This graph is composed of 7193
-nodes (or modules) and 17510 edges. Some clusters are interesting:
-
-- LWP and URI are really the center of the CPAN
-- a lot of web modules (XML::*, TemplateToolkit, HTML::Parser, ...)
-- TK is isolated from the CPAN
-- Moose, DBIx::Class and Catalyst are forming a group. This data are
- from march, we will try to do a newer version of this map this
- summer. This one will be really interesting as Catalyst have switched
- to Moose
-
-*** The CPAN's authors
-
-This map is about the authors on the CPAN. There is about 700 authors
-and their connections. Each time an author use a module of another
-author, a link is created.
-
-- Modern Perl, constitued by Moose, Catalyst, DBIx::Class. Important
- authors are Steven, Sartak, perigin, jrockway, mstrout, nothingmuch,
- marcus ramberg
-- Slaven Rezi? and others TK developpers are on the border
-
-*** Web map
-
-We crawled the web using the seed generated using the CPAN's authors
-pages.
-
-- again, the "modern group", on the top of the map, with
- Moose/Catalyst/DBIx::Class developpers
-- some enterprises, like shadowcat and iinteractive in the middle of
- the "modern Perl", Booking in the middle of the YAPC's websites (they
- are a major sponsor of this events), 6apart, ...
-- perl.org is the reference for the Perl community (the site is
- oriented on their sides)
-- cpan.org is the reference for the open source community
-- github is in the center of the Perl community. It's widely adopted by
- the Perl developpers. It offers all the "social media" features that
- are missing on the CPAN
-
-I hope you like this visualisations, have fun analyzing them :)
