Gonzalez-Barahona %X Libre (free, open source) software is one of the paradigmatic cases where heavy use of telematic tools and user-driven software development are key points. This paper proposes a methodology for measuring and analyzing remotely big libre software projects using publicly-available data from their version control repositories. By means of a tool called CVSAnalY that has been implemented following this methodology, measurements and analyses can be made in an automatic and non-intrusive way, providing real-time and historical data about the project and its contributors. %B the 2nd ICSE Workshop on Remote Analysis and Measurement of Software Systems (RAMSS), 26th International Conference on Software Engineering %C Edinburgh, Scotland %G eng %> https://flosshub.org/sites/flosshub.org/files/robles-koch-barahona_cvsanaly.pdf
