			<description><![CDATA[Steve, what you are showing here are not the code commits, but the total lines of code. The 600k lines for Joomla! are related to the fact that in Ohloh we are currently linking in the 1.5 release branch and the 1.5 trunk. This number should thus be divided by two. The better way to measure the activity would be to look at the activity stats for each project. Here is the link : http://www.ohloh.net/projects/compare?metric=Activity&project_0=Joomla!&project_1=Drupal+(core)&project_2=WordPress]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Cool. Wasn't certain if you had seen that, or not. Lately, 1.6 commits have been spamming my in-box. In terms of comparisons between the projects, though, personally, I would hope we will see Joomla!'s core code base decrease significantly over time. How many of us use Web links seriously? Or core Polls? On the other hand, Drupal's core is increasing - as it probably should, they now include CCK and Views and URLs. There is still talk about including an editor and possibly sample content. Drupal's core is still just a fraction of the size of Joomla! core. So, I would venture to guess eventually, J! will cast things off while Drupal continues to put things on. In Joomla!, watch for tools like Sam Moffatt has been building that will now be part of 1.6. His tools have already been used by others to provide Joomla! package upgrade services commercially and, when in core, will change the landscape of updates for the better. Helping people keep sites up to date will dramatically improve security. With those types of tools and a solid forge, J! begins to position for a slimmed down core and package creation possibilities. Then, things get interesting. When measuring community productivity, let's not forget JED. That growth has been phenomenal, hasn't it, Steve? I believe projects in JoomlaCode are also in Ohloh - being able to combine those efforts into full community numbers would provide another interesting metric to follow. (Although I agree with Robert on the caveat with all stats.) Rowan - what is the "splitting of template files" in 2008? It is true that the majority of the effort of 2008 has been stabilizing the new code base. It is intentional to restrict new functionality during maintenance. 1.6 will be the next big step forward for J!.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Hi Robert, Rob, Rowan I agree that these stats need to be taken with a pinch of salt, but I stand by what they say overall ... that people shouldn't worry if Joomla's SVN is quiet at the moment. Joomla proceeds with big leaps whereas the other two projects show much more incremental growth. Neither strategy is better, but I think this is an important difference between them.]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Looks like the graphs are representing a very different conclusion than what your post tried to indicate. Even commit counts would not express anything meaningful as there's no indication at all of how many lines of code, bug fixes and security breaches one commit contained. Never trust any statistics unless you faked it yourself...]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[This doesn't represent the number of code commits, It's the size of the project's codebase. You can see that Drupal and Wordpress's codebases have been gradually increasing in size (with minor dips), while Joomla grows over a short period of time and then stagnates. The total number of commits according to Ohloh is: Joomla: 13206 Drupal: 8461 Wordpress: 8088 That's not "over four times more code contributions", it's over four times the size of the other projects! I presume most of Joomla's 2008 growth comes from splitting up all the template files. It doesn't look like much has happened since then either.]]></description>
