This time, I've decided to +create some visualizations (probably 8) of the various communities using +[[http://github.com/][GitHub]]. I'm happy with the result, and will soon +start to publish the maps (statics and interactives) with some analyses. +I'm publishing two previews: the Perl community and the european +developers. These are not final results. The colors, fonts, and layout +may change. But the structure of the graphs will be the same. All the +data was collected using the [[http://developer.github.com/][GitHub +API]]. + +Each node on the graph represents a developer. When a developer +"follows" another developer on GitHub, a link between them is created. +The color on the Perl community map represent the countries of the +developer. One of the most visible things on this graph is that the +japanese community is tighly connected and shares very little contact +with the foreign developers. miyagawa obviously acts as a glue between +japanese and worldwide Perl hackers. + +The second graph is a little bit more complex. It represents the +European developers on GitHub. Here the colors represent the languages +used by the developers. It appears that ruby is by far the most +represented language on GitHub, as it dominates the whole map. Perl is +the blue cluster at the bottom of the map, and the green snake is... +Python. + +Thanks to [[http://code.google.com/p/tinyaml/][bl0b]] for his +suggestions :) -- cgit v1.2.3
