Re: Suggestions for packages to highlight on ohloh?

I'm not sure if this a particularly good idea, given the fact that besides the popular packages, there are unpopular ones too... but, as you say, are unpopular due to lack of buzz, not because they're not good packages. Separating out such packages will make them look bad. Or do you indend to only have THE most popular packages separated (such as these)? I already have dedicated pages for my PEAR2 packages, but that's only because there isn't one grand for PEAR2... I was kind'a hoping that we might go on that road. 2011/11/7 Daniel O'Connor <daniel.oconnor@gmail.com>: > Hey all, > PEAR is in Ohloh as one big project.
