We used data dumps of fourteen pro jects from the FLOSSMetrics (FM) retrieval system. Our intentions are (i) to present a possible methodology, its advantages and disadvantages which can benefit future researchers using some aspects of the FM retrieval system{\textquoteright}s data dumps, and (ii) discuss our initial research results on the contributions developers make to both coding and lists activities.}, keywords = {cvs, cvsanaly, developers, email, email archives, flossmetrics, mailing list, mlstats, source code}, attachments = {https://flosshub.org/sites/flosshub.org/files/49-542008.pdf}, author = {Sowe, Sulayman K. and Samoladas, Ioannis and Ioannis Stamelos and Lefteris Angelis} }
