Similarly, looking through the code that generates that website's data structures is a good idea. https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/comdev/projects.apache.org/ https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/comdev/reporter.apache.org/ Note that the reporter tool takes many of the same bits of data, but then produces commiter-private reports about each project's metrics; so some of the code (or data sources) you won't necessarily be authorized to access unless you're a committer on a specific project. - Shane > > > On Thu, Oct 8, 2015 at 2:48 PM, Andrew Paterson > <andrew_paterson_lon...@hotmail.com> wrote: >> Dear Sir/Madam, >> I'm interested in visualizing the metadata around Apache Projects to aid my >> understanding of them.
