[issue1002] darcs support for ohloh: call for help

Many of us are interested, and Ohloh is interested, in getting ohloh.net to support darcs repositories directly. It doesn't look hard to get good-enough support working; it just requires hacking 10 or so simple, well-organised ruby files. I've made a start on github[1], and set up a collaborative how-to & notes page here: http://etherpad.osuosl.org/pCIn3uhOeW Please help! And forward this to appropriate places. Best, -Simon [1] will be merged with prior work as needed

PS I forgot to describe: Ohloh (http://ohloh.net) provides useful metadata, stats, rankings etc. for free/open-source software projects, quite good for marketing and project management. Haskell projects and developers would benefit from this, but have long been excluded because it does not yet support darcs repositories.

The status/how-to page has moved to a nicer url: http://etherpad.osuosl.org/ohloh-darcs-support 5 of the 10 ohloh darcs adapter test files are now passing. Come and help put us over the top.

Current status of http://etherpad.osuosl.org/ohloh-darcs-support (http://bugs.darcs.net/issue1002): I got the ohloh_scm darcs adapter tests passing and now we are awaiting review from Ohloh, which could take a while as they are still in transition. If you wish, add your support to https://www.ohloh.net/topics/1138?page=2)#post_16260 . Best, -Simon
