thanks very much for your careful efforts .. <br>
The utility of having a single "source of truth" for lines of code, activity and some language profile, has slightly outweighed the undesirable dynamic of a FOSS dot-org requiring a third-party service constantly to understand its own projects. Personally, I feel OSGeo should have this ability in-house, along with other methods, and not rely so heavily on this one metric site. Certain project's measurements are horribly wrong to this day, and inevitably carry bias of varying kinds. <br>
best regards from Berkeley<br>

I was looking at <a href="https://www.openhub.net/p/geotools/analyses/latest/languages_summary" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.openhub.net/p/g<wbr>eotools/analyses/latest/langua<wbr>ges_summary</a> today and noticed a distinct stairstep pattern every time the geotools project migrated repository CVS, SVN, GIT. <br>
This made the project appear at 2 million lines of code, rather than one million. <br>
I have removed the old repositories, making the project appear younger than it is, but giving more accurate stats about what is there. <br>
I am under the impression OSGeo Live enjoys these stats? feedback welcome. --<br>
