	abstract = {A wealth of data can be extracted from the natural by-products of software development processes and used in empirical studies of software engineering. However, the size and accuracy of such studies depend in large part on the availability of tools that facilitate the collection of data from individual projects and the combination of data from multiple projects. To demonstrate this point, we present our experience gathering and analyzing data from nearly 10,000 open source projects hosted on SourceForge. We describe the tools we developed to collect the data and the ways in which these tools and data may be used by other researchers. We also provide examples of statistics that we have calculated from these data to describe interesting author- and project-level behaviors of the SourceForge community.},
